CA AB1634 mandatory spay neuter bill amended

Spay-neuter bill gets gutted in committee
Capitol Weekly, CA - June 19, 2008

excerpt:
AB 1634, from Assemblyman Lloyd Levine, D-Van Nuys, originally called for spaying or neutering of any dog or cat over six months of age, with exceptions for breeders, working animals and some others. As amended in the Senate Local Government Committee, the new version calls for the sterilization only of a dog that has been taken into the shelter system three times or a cat that has been in twice.
