DESERT RECREATIONISTS! Four Bills are now before the Congress of the United States which will lock us out of our
public lands, out of our California Desert. The issues are critical. District 37 needs your help! The following pages may
help get you started. Please express your concern - please write!
HOWTOWRITE
Make your lett ers short and simple. You are not expected to be an authority. If you do not have a typewriter, print or
write your letter. What counts is that you are concerned enough to voice your op inion.
Make your letters persona l - include your age , occupation , fam ily status, hometown and yo ur interest in the desert.
We are a decent group of people and it is important that we let others know it.
Avoid threats, avo id words such as "user" (rhymes with abuser), avoid statements such as "there is noth ing out there to
hurt".
.
Write Senate and House Comm ittee members, and your personal Congressmen.
Request Public Hearings in California. What is at stake is our Ca liforn ia Pub lic Lands.
