- PET
EVACUATION BILL (La. SB 607)
NEW ORLEANS (4/19/06) -
On April 18, 2006 the Pet Evacuation
Bill, La. SB 607, received unanimous
support from the Senate’s Judiciary
“B” Committee.
It was at times gut-wrenching. We
heard stories about people whose
lives were lost because they would
not abandon their pets. These
stories illustrate why this can
never happen again and the
importance of the pet evacuation
bill.
THIS WAS ONLY THE FIRST STEP
THERE’S MUCH MORE WORK THAT
NEEDS TO BE DONE
SB607 must now
go before the Senate Finance
Committee. If the Finance Committee
passes the bill on, it goes to the
Senate floor. If passed, it goes to
the House of Representatives, is
referred to another committee for a
hearing and the process is repeated.
After the bill passes both houses,
it goes to the Governor for her
signature.
Governor Blanco has expressed
concern that the bill can’t be
financed and that there’s no money
for it. We have to let Governor
Blanco know why this is so
important. Senator “Clo” Fontenot,
the bill’s author, is asking that
folks across the state and country
contact Governor Blanco and request
her support of the bill.

LET THE GOVERNOR KNOW WHY THIS
BILL MUST PASS:
· This bill will save the lives of
people because we’re saving their
pets
· Passage of this bill will define
Louisiana as a leader with this
lifesaving, groundbreaking
legislation
· A lifesaving measure is a
worthwhile expense
