The next step: the City-County Council needs to know you care about this issue!

Thank you again to everyone who has signed the petition. It would help tremendously if you would contact some of the decision makers for this issue. Letting them know that this issue is on the minds of voters will mean more to them than anything else. Here is a suggested email you could send:

Dear Councillor [insert name]:

I am writing to express my concern over the pit bull overpopulation crisis in Indianapolis. There have been several stories in the news that highlight the effects of this problem on both the city and the innocent dogs.

I am a supporter of a petition on Change. org that calls for the City-County Council to require the spay/neuter of all pit bulls in Indianapolis and registration of all breeders. Failure to do so would be the imposition of fines. You can read the petition here: https://chng.it/WWJTSgWTmV

I hope you will support this important initiative.

Sincerely,

[your name]
