Ca State Senator Joe Simitian to gut the OHV fund

please use my stuff as a guideline.

This to the Gov:

We (barf, CORVA) personally met with Senator Simitian last week. Franky, I was gravely disappointed. He seems to be engaged in a stunt for his own political gain, "save the day", by "stealing from Peter to pay Paul".

I understand the budget committee is meeting tomorrow with the intent of raiding the OHV Trust fund for monies to help help other less self sustaining operations remain open. As these funds are in trust, and paid for and allocated to OHV, it is both immoral and illegal to take this course of action. In the short and long term, this is a poor financial decision because it would withdraw funding from established state programs. You would be responsible for the laying off of more rangers and the eroding natural habitat. The closure of some smaller operations pale in contrast.

Please represent me, as it is your position do to so, in stopping this improper re-allocation of funds.

I voted for you. I hold you to a higher standard than opportunistic politicians.

I expect you to do the right thing.
 
Butch ...post up the governors email addy... Make it easy on us.!
 
Apparently, politicians don't pay as much attention to emails, and absolutely throw away "letter generators", because it makes it too easy for the public to communicate with them.

Imagine that. It makes it easy for their constituents to tell their representatives their concerns, so they THROW IT AWAY?!?

We have to be careful who we are electing. It is OUR government.

Send a not to the gov, and call him:

Governor Brown at 916) 445-2841
Fax: (916) 558-3160

I just tried calling Governor Brown at (916) 445-2841. They don't open till 9.
Must be nice.
 
Did you get through to the Governor's office?
 
thanks to you guys, we have slowed the process...
Next steps to follow.
 
I emailed my local (Marin) as well as state representatives as well.
I also included a segment of Brock's deceitful email and expressed my mistrust of those entrusted with this subject.
 
Shit!! This can not happen.... I will send communications tonight.. and handcuf myself nekkid to the gate of the park until they promise to keep it:)
 
FYI AMA is sending mass "take action" emails regarding the pillaging of California OHV find :party
 
Proper stewardship is exactly what we had accomplished WITH the OHV funds. Without the OHV funds, proper stewardship is nothing more than a dream.

Agreed. It's part of what eases my internal conundrum about being a greenie and a dude who loves to ride motorcycles in the woods.
