[QUOTE="KTMrad, post: 113120, member: 22365"] This issue is the MOST dangerous threat to public and private lands over the next few years.......PLEASE GET INVOLVED, send faxes and letters !! If you don't know what CARA is, page down towards the bottom for a description .......... American Land Rights Association - Land Rights Network PO Box 400 - Battle Ground WA 98604 Phone: 360-687-3087 - Fax: 360-687-2973 - Email: <alra@pacifier.com> - [url]http://www.landrights.org[/url] Legislative Office: 508 First St SE - Washington DC 20003 Phone: 202-210-2357 - Fax: 202-543-7126 - Email: [email]landrightsnet@aol.com[/email] ***CARA All Out Call To Action!!!*** Resources Committee Hearing June 20th TIME IS CRITICAL!! The House Resources Committee is set to hold a sham hearing on CARA on June 20th. They are severely limiting the witnesses opposed to CARA. They say they know all they need to know. They don´t care what you think. The supporters of CARA get to testify. You don´t. Your allies don´t. This is a stacked deck hearing. Jim Hansen (R-UT) is the new Chairman of the Resources Committee. He is locking you out. He is also a co-sponsor of HR 701 (CARA). He voted for CARA last year. CARA is not a shining example of Republican leadership. It is a pilfering of huge amounts of "pork" at your expense. They want your land. You´re in a race!! There will likely be very little time between the hearing and the Vote by the Committee two or three weeks later. CARA could go to the floor of the House for a vote in late July . . . UNLESS YOU STOP IT!!! HERE´S WHAT YOU MUST DO: -----1. Fill out and FAX your Testimony Questionnaire to your Congressman and the Committee. Get on the record. Make your Testimony count. You can get a fully formatted Testimony Questionnaire by going to [url]http://www.landrights.org[/url] You don´t have to look for it. It is right on the home page.. When you get it, also fax it to all the Congressmen in your State who are on the Resources Committee. You may call (800) 648 2516 (FREE) or (202) 225-3121 to call any Congressman at the Capitol Switchboard. Ask for your Congressman´s office. Then ask for the person who handles CARA (HR 701). Ask for your Congressman´s FAX number. -----2. When you go to [url]http://www.landrights.org,[/url] be sure to download the NO CARA, NO LAND GRABS POSTER. Fax that to your Congressman also. If you are unable to download the poster or the Testimony Questionnaire, call American Land Rights at (360) 687-3087 and leave a message with your fax number . We´ll fax them to you. -----3. Tell your Congressman you want FIELD HEARINGS in your state. Why OPPOSE CARA, the Condemnation and Relocation Act (HR 701): -----1. HR 701 now includes state AND Federal Condemnation (eminent domain) of private land; -----2. CARA will give $3 billion per year for 15 years, $45 billion in total, most of to buy land and drive rural landowners out of their homes, off their farms and into the cities; -----3. CARA will be a Trust Fund. That means it will not have to compete in the Congressional appropriations process with such important social priorities as cancer research, education, or the military. CARA will get the money first; -----4. Hunters and sportsmen will gradually lose access to acquired lands; -----5. Lands cut off by Forest Service Roadless Areas and Roads Policies will become targets as well; -----6. All lands with Endangered Species will be targets of land acquisition - there will be no limit; -----7. Much of the money will go to the Nature Conservancy, Conservation Fund and other land trusts; -----8. Billions of dollars of private land will be taken off the tax rolls, forcing local taxes up. PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO YOUR ENTIRE LIST. [/QUOTE]
