ACTION ALERT: NEW YORK Shipping ban legislation proposed
By kingsnake.com · March 1, 2021 9:32 am
Recently New York State has proposed wide sweeping legislation preventing shipping of animals by "any mail carrier", which would also include frequently used outlets such as FexEx and UPS, which both allow the shipment of live animals with rules and restrictions. This includes shipping both to and from the state and aims ban the shipping of all mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians.
USARK has already set up a page including contact information for all legislative representatives involved and even a sample letter for you to personalize. You can read the full bill and access all needed information on USARK's page for New York here.
Be sure at all times to remain calm and polite when reaching out to representatives on this matter.
