BLUERIBBON COALITION ACTION ALERT!
IDAHO, Call your Senators on CIEDRA before they return to Washington DC
Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber in Idaho,
What was your reaction to the news that Idaho Senators Mike Crapo and Jim Risch recently introduced Congressman Mike Simpson's Central Idaho Economic Development and Recreation Act (CIEDRA) in the Senate?
Were you shocked? You should have been. Idaho has 5 million acres of Wilderness already. More than any other state except Alaska. Wilderness bans all mountain bike and motorized recreation. Yet, Idaho's entire congressional delegation is now supporting a bill that designates 332,775 new acres of wilderness in the Boulder White Clouds (BWC).
I hate to say this, but the story on this CIEDRA bill is getting worse. A comparison between the 2009 House version and the 2010 Senate version will turn your shock into outrage.
