NY Residents/hunters/trappers-Please Read

NEW YORK STATE CONSERVATION COUNCIL NEWS FLASH

January 25, 2007

Governor Spitzer announces that he has selected Assemblyman Alexander “Pete” Grannis as the new Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation.
Assemblyman Grannis has served on the NYS Assembly Environmental Conservation Committee since the mid 1970s and is a strong advocate for a clean environment. He is also known as an opponent of trapping. He fly-fishes and has a mixed record on hunting issues.Governor Spitzer has seen fit to fill the vacant Head of the NYSDEC job with someone who is not fit for the position.  He chose Pete Grannis.

Pete Grannis is anti-hunting, anti-trapping, anti-second amendment and anti-gun as well...How can anyone in their right mind(Gov Spitzer) appoint such a man to a position that is very important to such issues...

I copied this this petition address from another web-site.  It is the least that we can to do to let Gov. Spitzer know how we feel. 

http://www.petitiononline.com/nogranni/petition.html

On top of signing the petition, all concerned NYers should also send letters or contact the offices of the Governor, Assemblymen and Senators...Good luck...Looks like we might need it.

I'm on there! My father-in-law who owns a small gun shop is on there and he's been sending the link and urging his customers to sign to. He's gotten a response from his regular customers saying they've signed as well.

  Talked to my state senator's office this morning. Sen Cathy Young is an acquaintance of mine.
  I probably would not have had to call, but did anyway..Cathy was raised a farm girl here, in a great farming/hunting area..
