Congress to Vote on H.R. 1925 America's Red Rock Wilderness Act This Thursday!
Moab Might Be Gone Forever!
Posted Today 01:35 PM by 4WOR Web Editor
Filed under: Miscellaneous, Jason Gonderman
The Chairman of the Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Lands of the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources has scheduled a hearing on October 1 to consider H.R. 1925, America's Red Rock Wilderness Act of 2009.
This legislation -- which will ban off-highway vehicle (OHV) access to public lands to those who live and recreate in Utah -- was introduced by New York Representative Maurice Hinchey.
However, not a single Representative from Utah is supporting H.R.1925.
Specifically, H.R. 1925 would designate more than nine million more acres as federally protected "Wilderness," and directly affect the Moab, San Rafael Swell and Chimney Rock areas (to name a few) in Utah.
These popular OHV areas represent some of the most important remaining OHV recreation areas in Utah, and are some of the most popular with responsible OHV riders. The proposed Wilderness designation would also make the land off limits to ATV riders, mountain bikers and horseback riders.
Coming on the heels of the recently enacted Omnibus Public Land Management Act, which closed 2 million acres of public lands, this vast Wilderness bill will take away additional recreation opportunities currently enjoyed by local residents and visitors alike.
The AMA needs your help now to stop H.R. 1925. The fastest way to reach your U.S. Representative is to call them. You can find contact information for your elected officials by entering your zip code on AmericanMotorcyclist.com, clicking on "Rights," then "Issues and Legislation." Additionally, a prewritten e-mail is available for you to send to your Representative immediately by following the "Take Action" option and entering your information.
Please contact your Representative right away and urge them to oppose H.R. 1925.
It's VERY VERY SIMPLE! Just click here...

... and you will be taken to the AMA's (American Motorcycle Association) website. Enter your zip code and a letter will be sent to your representative urging them to vote NO on this bill.
Do it NOW! please

Copy and paste from 4WOR?
I should have posted that here too... totally spaced on that. EVERYBODY needs to click on the link and send an email to their representative. It's super simple and could help every single one of us. It's Moab this week, but it could be your favorite wheeling trail tomorrow if we don't stop these guys!

Asuza should be fine, since it's a state run park, not federal. It's in bigger danger from the Governator than these yahoos.

You have to look in the forum... Looks like it's still closed from the fire, but it could reopen any week now.
