S.22 Land Grab Vote

[RAT]

Harry Reid to Force Vote On Omnibus Land Grab This Weekend
The Omnibus Federal Land Grab Bill Number is now S. 22
Urgent Action Required
You must call your Senators immediately. They must be deluged with calls now at (202) 224-3121.
If you live in California Senator Feinstein could be swayed in our favor. She needs to hear from You.
You should also call your Congressman. The bill will have to go back through the House if it passes the Senate.
All Senators may be called at (202) 224-3121. All Congressmen may be called at (202) 225-3121. They must know in no uncertain terms that rural America opposes this massive Wilderness and land grab bill.
You must let your Senators and Congressman know you will hold them responsible for their vote on S. 22. This is the largest land grab in 20 years. They must know they will be held accountable.
Now is not the time to be locking up our resources when we need them to help rebuild our economy.
Please forward this message to as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

It may have been only one vote, but it was OUR vote, and it counted. The tide is turning.

[Mitch]

Rich,

Thank you for forwarding that info. I see that I have another list of dummies to write to and try to educate. Don't take away anymore of our public land!

Mitch

[Materdaddy]

You high desert people have to get rid of Lewis... :thumbs_do

I'm still happy with Darrell Issa, and my other SD folks with Hunter. :thumbs_up

[Jason]

I wasn't too happy with Sanchez. Either one as they both voted yes. They have both received letters from me.

[COLOR="Sienna"]Michigan: No suprises there... I just don't understand how you can claim to be a "recreation state" when you prevent public access to public lands. Idiots.[/COLOR]

I think every email, fax, phone call we make to our representatives (I use that term very loosely) should be tax deductible. Time, supplies, internet charges, phone and faxes charges. Wadda ya'all think??

[sarah]

Lewis is goin down....

[Max7]

Yikes!

Thanks for the info... I agree with Roger, "too close for comfort". Lewis will be held responsible by not having my vote next election. Each of us in our own districts need to find out who will be running next and start campaigning for the new one early.

....I just called Congressman Jerry Lewis's office and asked why he voted yes on s-22 they could not answer my question. I expect a call back from Washington today. Here is his Washington number: (202) 225-5861 you should ask why too!
Best, Max7

[COLOR="Sienna"]While I will be vehemently pursuing getting Carl Levin (D, MI) replaced, and if possible castrated, sometimes It’s simply a choice between :poop: vs :poop:[/COLOR]
