Will The Fight Go On?
On January 17, 2007, Senator Mary Jane Garcia (D-Dona Ana) introduced Senate Bill (SB) 10 to Prohibit Cockfighting in New Mexico. Eighty-one percent of New Mexicans who support a ban, wait with bated breath to see if this will be the last year for these cruel contests. SB10 was referred to the Senate Conservation and Senate Judiciary Committees and we are waiting for the hearing date to be set.
In the meantime, please go to www.WillTheFightGoOn.com to get updates, read about the issue and sign up for the e-mail list so that you'll be the first to know what's going on!
It is looking like it is going to be an exciting year for New Mexico's animals (political and otherwise) and we'll hopefully have a lot to "crow about!" Stay tuned for more updates!
