Thaddy Gets Happy

Michigan Representative Thaddeus McCotter, a Republican, has proposed H.R. 3501 the so called H.A.P.P.Y. act.

If passed into law, the legislation would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 would allow a tax deduction of up to $3,500 dollars per year for expenses related to any legally owned, domesticated, live animal; i.e. pet.



The resolution has been referred to the House Ways and Means committee, where it will hopefully be euthanized in the most humane manner possible.

In the meantime, call McCotter's office at 202-225-8171, and ask that he please put the bong down and get back to work.

I love our pets, even Mimi, but this is astonishingly ridiculous.
