I read this in the Thumper Talk newsletter:
U.S. House Members Poised to Ban Motorized Vehicles From 2.1 Million Acres!
The newly elected Congress may hold a vote in the next weeks on a massive land grab bill S.22 that will lock up millions of additional acres of public land, close thousands of miles of recreation trails, harm already struggling rural economies, further reduce renewable resource harvesting, be detrimental to forest health by eliminating all forest management, restrict property rights and hamstring energy exploration in the United States.
Take action NOW to stop this senseless legislation! It's both easy and fast. Just follow this link:
