This is why it's important for citizens who don't want stuff like this to proceed to vote for representatives who will vote their interests and vote against this. Don't succumb to apathy and resignation -- it's important to vote -- both political sides are not the same.

Thanks Gene for the heads up.Hopefully we the PUBLIC can save our lands.A letter to these reps might help.

“The bill that was referenced is H.R. 1581. Under this legislation, there is no ‘sell-off’ of land. The bill simply opens certain land to multiple uses, while keeping them under federal ownership. The Department of the Interior has studied these lands and has deemed them unsuitable for wilderness designation.
If you want to use your camper to access the public lands in a responsible manner you should support this bill. Many areas were declared wilderness simply as a way to lock up the land without meeting the legal definition of wilderness, this bill seeks to restore responsible use.

Declaring an area off-limits to vehicles in no way locks it up. On-foot is the best way to travel if you want to experience what an area is like in its natural state. Not physically able to travel by foot? Well...I don't believe that everything needs to be made handicap accessible. I'm not in good enough shape to hike/climb to some places in the some wilderness areas, and that's fine with me -- it's enough to just know that they're there -- protected.

I think you should get the WTW nickname, "Peacemaker" or "The Diplomat", highz!I think the main point in posting on WtW is to ping us so we get active, and at least write your legislators whichever side you are on.

I think there are plenty of roads on public lands already -- enough for my use, anyway. Providing an opportunity for more people to drive on more roads in no way improves my enjoyment of the outdoors.

Nice to know there are clear independent thinkers out there.
I thank the heavens above there are still small remnants of our West where we cannot drive, or need to.
I write. Someday I hope we may get a representative that can read.
