Delegate Schuh's
Constituent Update
January 2009, Vol. 2
2009 Session Update
Dear Constituent:

As you might be aware, I had intended to propose a bill during the 2009 Legislative Session that would grant authority to counties to ban pit bulls. This proposed bill was in response to concerns expressed by residents of various Northern Anne Arundel County neighborhoods who are terrorized by pit bulls.

Since the release of my Legislative Update last Tuesday, in which I announced publicly this proposal, I have received an unprecedented number of phone calls and emails from constituents in opposition to any breed-specific dog ban. Those in opposition point out rightly that the problem lies with irresponsible, criminal owners who mistreat these animals, rather than with a specific breed of dog. Accordingly, I have decided to withdraw the bill.

I will continue to work with communities that are most affected by dangerous dogs and, if advisable, develop future legislation that would target irresponsible dog owners by possibly requiring tighter licensing requirements, increased penalties, and enhanced insurance coverages.

I am sincerely appreciative of the efforts so many constituents have made to share their views with me. I am more than happy to defer to the will of the majority. That's what democracy is all about!

Steve

I think that this site is a great site, and the awareness it brings will be a great factor in fighting the stigma that follows this breed.

Please let me know any way that I may be of service.

Best Regards,

Crystal Sanders
