My name is Seth Rodebeck,
I am opposed to HR669 for multiple reasons. There are multiple ways to combat the ignorance of a few so that the majority may enjoy their hobby. No one has made up legislation on the effects of golf courses, shopping centers, water treatment facilities, or power plants, on the environment. The amount of toxic chemicals in fertilizers that go into ground water, displaced species, and byproduct of certain types of facilities is overall more damaging than the common exotic species homeowner, utilizing his rights to enjoy his/her own home environment. Liscensing, taxation, certifications, SOMETHING else can be done to get your results achieved. I hope you will reconsider your options.
I AM STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THIS LEGISLATION
