Roosters on the way to roost on Governor's desk!
Cockadoodledoo!
SB10 is on its way to Governor Bill Richardson's desk for signing this week!
After passing back through the Senate for a technical amendment concurrence last week by a vote of 27-6, the bill is ready for signature. Senator Phil Griego attempted to stall SB10 during concurrence by voting against accepting the amendment which was actually a legal "fix" for the incorrect amendment that Sen. Griego added on the Senate floor during SB10's initial Senate vote, he was joined by only 5 other Senators and his stalling attempt failed.
This historic moment signifies a new direction for the state of New Mexico and one that should make every animal lover celebrate. This reflects that New Mexicans' values are to protect all animals and not subject any animal to horrific acts of cruelty for entertainment and illegal gambling.
On behalf of the roosters, Animal Protection Voters thanks everyone who in the past and present have brought us to this historic time!
