I have sent letters and made a couple calls also. Please make the effort to get involved! This might be reality shortly! There will be some ghost towns if this gets passed.

 

[Wheel House Motorsports]

reminded a few extra friends to get on this.


got any computer people who could take a list of names and adresses and input them into that and spam reps from all states?

Id be more then happy to compile a list of names and fake adresses.

the problem we face is that those of us from mountain states affected write our reps, and the f*ck tards from the east coast who have much more rep power hear nothing about it hence the idea above.

This would eliminate everywhere I go. This is no good.

Since I'm from MN, I e-mailed the reps and 1 Senator we have directly.

Thanks for the heads up............again..............

This new atmoshpere in DC will make the 90's and the Clintons look like they were conservatives.

Ditto. I did the same.

I agree, this will eliminate where I ride/ridden in the past.

Well i have done what i can. I contacted My county commissioners and got them on board and they will go to our state congressional members as well as the Govenors office. I have learned that Idaho Govenor Otter is sending a letter of non support as well as our congressional members. I stepped up a notch by contacting our local ski resort to advise them there Cat Ski program as well as development oppertunties might be in jepordy. Why would anyone buy land at a resort next to a wilderness that you can't access. It's time ALL Motorized Sports users stand up to this assualt, snowmobiles,bikes,atv,cat skiers, heli skiers, white water boating we all need to send a message. STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS!!!!

I called our senators from WI offices yesterday. I keep getting a busy signal for my congressman, but I'll get him!

For others who are not in western states, here's a nice tool to get the contact info the people we need to contact:

This one will get you the info of any U.S. senator

And tell us HOW you did that so we can ALL follow suit.

Scott: I guess I kind of have the upper hand on things like this but heres how you do it. I worked for the County for seventeen years and meet with the commission at least three times a week so you could say I am connected. Here in Adams County we are much like you guys in Mt our logging mining and ranching have all been destroyed by Eastern Enviros so the stage is set for applying STATES RIGHTS and it all starts with your county commissioners. All it should take is a phone call or get on the adgenda of one of their meetings ask them to contact your state legislators as well as your u.s. legislators then follow suit by calling your Govoners office ask for someone on the govoners staff that handles natural resource issues stay your case and ask if they are in contact with the govoners of Idaho, Wyoming, Oregon,Utah and Nevada and you could try Washington. The Govoner has staff members just waiting for your call in fact I used to take our legislative staff and the staff from the Govenors office riding every year. Ask them if they would like to join you for a ride and see first hand what the situation is. The key is ASK don't be afraid to CALL them just be polite

 

[Scott]

Nice. Well done. If we all took that approach we could get a lot done in a lot of places.

 

[MTdream]

Here is a letter I sent to the county commissioners in Flathead and Lake counties...woudl STRONGLY suggest all of us contact county commissioners to get them to step up like the county commissioners in Wyoming have!!!

I don’t know if you have heard about this bill or not but it is being sponsored by, and has gained a good number of co-sponsors…

The goal of the plan will shut down motorized and off-highway recreation in most of the gallatin, Bridger and Crazy mountain areas in Montana…Here is a link to more information on the legislation

http://www.arra-access.com/campaign/advocacy_oppose_hr980

Here is a map showing what areas are planned to be shut down by this legislation

http://www.wildrockiesalliance.org/assets/nrepaMaps/nrepaAll.jpg

This would have a profound Impact on local businesses, recreationists etc. etc. It is time that we step up and say ENOUGH!!!!

Please take note of what is happening in Wyoming, they are creating a County Commission led meeting to get people to stand up against this type of thing….

http://www.pinedaleonline.com/news/2009/04...niteagainst.htm


We need to stand up to people telling us what to do, and how to manage our lands…please help us stop this senseless legislation!!!

For all the Idaho peeps on here I just want to make sure that it got sent to the right person and I sent an e-mail to Robert L. Geddes. Let me know if it is wrong so I can get it sent to the right person.

This is just insane what people back east think that they can do that does not even effect them, just like the wolves they don't have to deal with it we do

I think that Mike Simpson is the rep for us.. http://www.house.gov/simpson/bio.shtml

I think the chain letter is an easy way out and will not hold as much water as a personaized letter... I wrote my own short letter.

[hilinerider]

hard to tell on the map but i beleive this would put cooke city out of business, i am also getting a meeting (helpin him with his race car) with our head county commisioner (he also rides) to bring him up to date on this

 

[TIM]

when i contacted mimmick's office, they told me he had not committed to one side or the other yet. I thought that was bad.

Minnick's office is right next to mine and last time I bugged them about this I understood REP. Minnick DID NOT support NREPA. I will check again tomorrow. Please continue to write your representative directly.
