On Tuesday, The Assembly Agriculture Committee favorably reported a committee substitute for A-2401, the Responsible Dog Ownership Act. The League commends the sponsors for taking municipal concerns both in the committee substitute and subsequent technical amendments into account and believe the committee substitute greatly improves the legislation. The League testified and moved previous opposition to a neutral position.
A-2401 was removed from the board list for Thursday’s Assembly session. The Senate companion was removed from committee consideration last week and was not posted on the Senate board list this week.
