I have spent the last hour trying to decipher one of the clunkiest bills I have ever seen written, Washington state House Bill 6294, sponsored by state senator Stanford out of Bothel
Basically, it's trying to outlaw the sale of fur in the state.
Here's the opening paragraph...
NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that eliminating the6 sale of fur products in the state of Washington will decrease demand7 for cruel products; reduce public health risks, including risks to consumers from toxic chemicals used to treat fur; protect consumers from false and misleading advertising and labeling of fur products;10 promote community awareness of animal welfare; promote environmental11 awareness of animal welfare; alleviate environmental burdens; andenhance the reputation of the state.
it's complete horse shit, clunky, misintended and an animal rights bill mascarading as animal welfare bill
There's a bunch of weird exemptions, but most concerning is what could it do to fly tying materials
Have a look at the bill, and start calling your reps, pronto
It's slated to have a hearing on Thursday and a vote on the 31st. Time is of the essence
Here's the contact info of the sponsor, State Senator Stanford
Dont make this a red blue thing. Just get this fucking thing shot down...
