HR 622 needs to go

[Publiclandhunter]

Time to focus on HR 622. Contact your representatives whoever they are, and then make sure Chaffetz and Stewart hear us loud and clear. Time to pressure Stewart as well. HR 622 takes all law enforcement power away from the BLM and Forest service. I get why local control seems like a good idea at times but this is a broad brush stroke that will remove law enforcement where laws simply aren't going to be enforced if the BLM and Forest Service aren't around. What's next we get rid of DWR officers? Then UHPs? This undermines the law and order and integrity of our public lands and the agencies that manage them. Here's the information, this bill needs to go:

Jason Chaffetz- Utah office: 801-851-2500
DC Office: 202-225-7751

Chris Stewart- Utah office- 801-364-5550
DC Office- 202-225-9730


For your representatives: 202-224-3121

What's with utah? Why is all of the extreme rhetoric on land ownership /usage coming out of utah? Lds related?

It seems UT is leading the charge and other states are jumping on the bandwagon...

Please continue contacting your reps on this issue, it is important it doesn't make it anywhere. Also please attend Chaffetz open house if you can. It will be this Thursday, February 9th at 7PM at Brighton high school in Cottonwood Heights Utah.
