I just put calls through to each of these senators and my own state senator asking them to vote NO on today’s vote on S-1081. I got through to everyone easily. The only ones to ask for my address were my own senator and Kemp Hannon, which is why I’ve included zip codes. I urge everyone to call. This whole process took less than 5 minutes and apparently, it is a lot easier calling State Government than the Federal Government.

Many wild bird groups and supporters such as American Bird Conservancy are urging the public to contact their state senators and urge them to vote "No" on S. 1081. Here are some contacts for those interested in making such calls. Obviously you can also call your own state senator. * Senate Majority Leader, John Flanagan: (518) 455-2071<tel:(518)%20455-2071> Smithtown LI 11787 * Deputy Majority Leader John Bonacic: (518) 455-3181<tel:(518)%20455-3181> Delhi 13753 * Chairman of Senate Finance John De Francisco: (518) 455-3511<tel:(518)%20455-3511> Syracuse 13202 * Secretary of the Senate Majority Conference Martin Golden: (518) 455-2730<tel:(518)%20455-2730> Bay Ridge Brooklyn 11214 * Assistant Majority Leader Kemp Hannon: (518) 455-2200<tel:(518)%20455-2200> Garden City LI 11530 Thanks, Tim Dunn Babylon NY Sent from my iPhone -- NYSbirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics<http://www.northeastbirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME> Rules and Information<http://www.northeastbirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES> Subscribe, Configuration and Leave<http://www.northeastbirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm> Archives: The Mail Archive<http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html> Surfbirds<http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L> BirdingOnThe.Net<http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html> Please submit your observations to eBird<http://ebird.org/content/ebird/>! -- --- This communication may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
