Thank you again to everyone who has signed the petition. It would be tremendously helpful 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] (or Mayor and Marion County Prosecutor):
I am writing to express my concern over the canine 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 fund low income spay/neuter services, require licensure of breeders with mandatory microchipping and allocate funds for two new prosecutors to enforce existing laws to effectively deter animal cruelty, dog fighting and other animal related crimes. You can read the petition here: https://chng.it/WWJTSgWTmV
I hope you will support this important initiative.
Sincerely,
