We as a community NEEDS to do this!!! Tis the time and the season. I'm driving my Jeep up there (I hope---going to the garage right now to put it together).





Mike Swenson--from email said:
1- Participate in our Motorized Users Legislative Voice Day at the Capitol this Friday Feb 9th starting at 12:30 P.M. It is VERY important that hundreds of you show up. Can you imagine if only a dozen or so show? What that would say about how important these issues are to us? We really need you! This Friday afternoon was the best time to do it. If you can bring your spouse and children, make it a family event. Come dressed in whatever you wear to jeep, ATV, snowmobile, dirt bike, etc. There will be a couple SHORT speeches and then we will give you info on how current bill status and how to contact your legislators, you may be able to pin them down that day and tell them your opinion face to face. This event has the potential of really helping our cause. PLEASE make every effort to be there. Call us with ANY questions.

2- Plan to comment in a committee meeting. WE REALLY need comments for the meeting this Wednesday morning. There are 2 very important bills that will be discussed and you will have a chance to voice your opinions to the committee. You can go to our website and read the bills, see our comments, and in the help section you will find some simple tips on how to testify before a committee, it’s not hard and it is a rewarding experience. You need’nt be a “big shot” to testify, in fact the opinions of the general public mean very much to the committee members and WILL affect their decisions. If you can please come and testify! Call our office if you have any questions we would be thrilled to help you with tips, directions or whatever you need.

3- If you can’t come to a committee meeting, PLEASE email your comments to the committee members. We are not telling you what your opinions ought to be, we simply want the motorized community actively involved in these issues. We have offered our take on each bill on our website. You can go there and see what USA-ALL’s opinion is on each bill. The 2 bills that will go to committee first this week are HB 237 AND HB 321. Please read them and send your comments to the committee members ASAP. They need to see these BEFORE 8:00 A.M. this Wednesday morning. If you would like to discuss these or any other bills or have any questions PLEASE call our office as always we will be happy to help in any way. If you want to send an email to the entire committee you can do so by clicking this link House Resource Committee. This is a special email address on one of our servers that will receive your comments and then distribute them out the committee members email addresses. We absolutely will not alter your emails they are redistributed automatically. You must send it from the same address that has received this alert; this is a safeguard against spammers. We thought this would be helpful so you don’t have to type in each members email address. If you would prefer to do it manually here are the email addresses of the individual committee members:

House Natural Resources, Agriculture, and Environment Committee
Roger E. Barrus, Chair
Kerry W. Gibson, Vice Chair
Carl W. Duckworth
Glenn A. Donnelson
Jack R. Draxler
James R. Gowans
John G. Mathis
Melvin R. Brown
Michael E. Noel
Neal B. Hendrickson
Patrick Painter
Phil Riesen
Richard W. Wheeler
Stephen E. Sandstrom
Sylvia S. Andersen

Our bill sponsor (H.B. 237 Rep. Tilton) has asked that we have a lot of emails into committee members supporting the H.B. 237, we hope those of you who support H.B. 237 will take a minute to let the committee members know


USA-ALL has been working hard over the past two years to educate our legislators on motorized access issues. You may not agree with our stance entirely and we respect that please feel free to call us and discuss any thoughts or concerns you may have. We want to hear from you. You may also find there is more rhyme to our reason than you had previously thought. No matter what you position on these issues, it is still important that our community unite, and let our legislators know that these issues are important to us, important enough that we will send an email, write a letter, attend a rally or testify in a committee. It is our right to become involved, if we fail to do so then we are giving up those rights and allowing others to control law and policy. Please join with us and help make a difference. I say it every year and it remains true EVERY voice counts, let yours be heard!

Check out our website www.usaall.org for regularly updated info on all bills affecting the motorized community along with helpful info about the legislature and how you can be more involved.

Please forward this email to others

Thank you,

Mike Swenson

I have meetings from 12:45 till after 3:00 :rolleyes: (they usually feed us though :rofl: )

Is it just me or are meetings the biggest waste of time? :confused: Seriously, send me an email with the recap, if I have any questions I'll ask. Otherwise just STFU and let me work -_- :D

I had a brain fart... my meetings are not until Monday. I spent all day getting ready today so that explains why I was mixed up.

I'LL BE THERE!
