OK, so I refined this a bit and sent it to Mouse Direct. Please take this message and go to every "contact us" link on every exotic pet website you can find and paste it in. Let's get the online (and brick and mortar stores with websites) speaking out about this too.

Hello,
I thought I would point out what some other large reptile supply companies have done to help fight against HR669, which would bring the pet industry to a lurching halt.
ZooMed has posted a link and the Pets in Peril video on their front page! Exo-Terra has sent an urgent email blast to their customers urging them to take action against this unscientific bill. They are getting free press and building social capital with customers as word of their assistance spreads across herp websites and forums.
I would encourage Mice Direct to join in to help spread awareness of this attack on exotic pet ownership.
Please consider posting the link and video on your site, emailing everyone in your customer contact database, and include a printed flier in your shipments to customers.
You can find other ways to help on the following sites, including banners, graphics, fliers, and other materials:
www.nohr669.comwww.pijac.orgwww.usark.org If you are not already a member of PIJAC, take a look at what they have to offer. They also need your help with a survey of companies that will be directly impacted by this bill. Your anonymous financial impact details would help convince the legislature that this bill will hurt American businesses like yours. The survey is online and free to fill out. You need not be a member to complete the survey.
Any help you could provide will help.
Thank you.
