Harry Reid to Force Vote On Omnibus Land Grab This Weekend

The Omnibus Federal Land Grab Bill Number is now S. 22

Urgent Action Required

You must call your Senators immediately. They must be deluged with calls now at (202) 224-3121.

If you live in California Senator Feinstein could be swayed in our favor. She needs to hear from You.

You should also call your Congressman. The bill will have to go back through the House if it passes the Senate.

All Senators may be called at (202) 224-3121. All Congressmen may be called at (202) 225-3121. They must know in no uncertain terms that rural America opposes this massive Wilderness and land grab bill.

You must let your Senators and Congressman know you will hold them responsible for their vote on S. 22. This is the largest land grab in 20 years. They must know they will be held accountable.

Now is not the time to be locking up our resources when we need them to help rebuild our economy.

Please forward this message to as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

but no offices would be open today, right?
 
Aside from the obvious ocncerns of our crowd, thsi is also pretty bothersome:

>
Oil and Natural Gas

Coburn, citing data from the Bureau of Land Management, predicted that the legislation would take about 8.8 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 300 million barrels of oil out of production in Wyoming alone.

“The energy resources walled off by this bill would nearly match the annual production levels of our two largest natural gas production states--Alaska and Texas,” Coburn said in a written statement.

The bill also contains billions of dollars for special projects known as earmarks, including $1 billion for a California water project to protect salmon migration and $3.5 million for a commission to commemorate the 450th anniversary of the founding of St. Augustine, Florida.

Kay Hagan voted in favor of closing discussion on the bill.

Richard Burr did not vote (presumably not present for the Sunday session).

Duly noted in both cases. :rolleyes:
 
Passed final vote yesterday.

Kay Hagan voted Yea.
Richard Burr voted Nay.

Now is the time to get in the ear of your House members. You want them to vote NO on the omnibus "wilderness" bill.
