Those super efforts are the reason that OHV has a chance to save the CA OHV program. For now, I would just encourage riders to continue sending in "OPPOSE" SB249 letters to their assembly and senate members. Should have more specific action items for you in a few weeks. Thanks again to you and all of the riders who have helped in this fight!Don Amadorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13045787382896008473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853780194331041713.post-46053585626536604402017-07-13T10:56:19.774-07:002017-07-13T10:56:19.774-07:00Don thanks for your thoughtful and rational statem...Don thanks for your thoughtful and rational statements on the sheer punitive nature of SB 249. As you know the Calif Assembly Committee on Water Parks & Wildlife just voted in favor to keep SB 249 alive. Over the past several weeks I have written and communicated with my local assemblyperson on that committee about the pointless, unnecessary and crushing effects on OHV recreation that SB 249 contains.<br /> <br />I have no difficulty writing respectful letters to our politicians. Where, or to whom, do you anticipate our next efforts should be? Shall they be directed at certain elected officials, the governor? Or to encourage & support the backers of AB1077 ?<br /><br />Paul E Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853780194331041713.post-44994352723451858362017-07-13T10:46:26.340-07:002017-07-13T10:46:26.340-07:00Lee, thanks for the comment!

I think we made some progress during the hearing on Tuesday, but will have to see how things play out over the next few weeks.
