Public lands sale
It doesn't matter your political persuasion, if you trout fish, this affects you. Up for sale is a large section of the east side of the kern river, including areas around the south fork and some of the last refuges for our native golden trout. Upper sections of Hot creek, large swaths of local national forest including local native rainbow trout habitat and blm land will put our recreational opportunities at risk. What can you do? Call our senators and tell them to fight and vote no. Call Darrel Issa and tell him you don't want this. Join land conservation groups like the Teddy Roosevelt Conservation Partnership and donate so their lawyers can sue to stop it and lobby congress. |

Too late
Too late. The land grab and other crap along with misleading information will go on for the next 2 - 4 years. If not longer.........

You can fold or you can fight. That's up to you. I'm just giving the info so those who want to can make some calls, send some emails, spread the word. From what I hear it's starting to spread and be effective as people all over the country and the political spectrum agree on this.

2 - 4 years is the window

WHO is going to buy the land? Why? What is their connection to the politicians and cronies that even brought this up? Who determined we need to sell the land? The land is "public" for a reason. With this information, we don't need to fight. Just vote! And if someone voted for one of these politicians, then they just have to accept what they have done and do more due diligence when applying our powerful tool. "VOTE" This is not a political forum, so I will restrain myself further on this topic. |

But the senate has not voted yet and are feeling the heat from all political persuaions. Who's going to buy it? Timber, mining, oil companies and rich guys who want to block off massive swaths of prime fishing and hunting land for themselves.
Yes, people voted without knowing this would happen, they should have known cause they tried this last time and we stopped it. It's their responsibility to speak out as much as those who voted against this. Thanks for helping me keep this at the top of the forum ![]() Here's a link to voice your opposition... https://www.trcp.org/action-alert/ur...c&ceid=1752026 |
