screw this ban.
if you guys can stop this you dont have to worry.
i highly doubt it will fall through...JMO.

I agree.

The disadvantages far outway the advantages. I think Mr. Obama getting a new dog recently will help you guys a lot. I think now he will feel what we feel when we keep our fish.

Anyway if it does pass, no way will they be able to stop people breeding fish and selling em on.

This bill is nothing more than a way for some crooked politician somewhere to line his pockets. Someone will have to foot the bill on the analysis of all the species to determine if they could be considered invasive or not, and alot of that money will slip through the cracks as it does with other bogus laws right into the pockets of the people who proposed the law to begin with. I cant see this law getting passed, the pet industry is a big part of the economy and I couldnt imagine congress doing anything to negatively impact it at this time. People have been keeping fish here for a long time and very few of the species have ever caused an ecological disaster. If any. Most of the invasive species that have caused problems were not introduced by the pet trade, but rather the corporate giants and their huge cargo ships bringing in waters infested with things like Zebra Muscle and dumping them into the lakes. That is where better control needs to be.
