IVMA Legislative Alert – Help the IVMA and IAEP Oppose Proposed Cuts to the Indiana Horse Racing Industry and Breed Development Programs
Please join the IVMA and the Indiana Association of Equine Practitioners (IAEP) as we oppose an amendment to HB 1001 (the Budget bill) which includes language to cut funding to the Indiana horse racing industry by 55% and place a $27 million cap on the investment of funds for the horse racing industry and breed development programs. The IVMA and IAEP strongly oppose this reduction. We urge all Indiana veterinarians to contact their state legislator immediately regarding this proposal. Take action here!

   

The world’s first veterinary school was founded in Lyon, France, in 1761, shortly followed by the Alfort veterinary school, near Paris, in 1764, both of them at the initiative of French veterinarian Claude BOURGELAT. This means that 2011 will mark the 250th world anniversary of veterinary education. By setting up the world’s first veterinary training institutions, BOURGELAT created the veterinary profession itself. Thus, 2011 will also mark the 250th world anniversary of the veterinary profession. Click here for more information!
