Very good proposal but seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle- CSA will be in DC in a couple weeks to voice our on going support for the proposal

Love the idea not sure how legal that would be.

Utah is certainly on the right track - follows their legislative resolution telling the feds no more Wilderness a couple of years ago. Unfortunately we can't get that kind of representation in CO

Udall, Bennet, Polis & Hickenblooper are God's gift to "Wilderness".

Is it any wonder the liberals and even most conservatives want the fed to tell the states what to do? Vote Ron Paul!
