Help kill wilderness bill 1975 101307

Our Klamath Basin Water Crisis
Upholding rural Americans' rights to grow food,
own property, and caretake our wildlife and natural resources.

To KBC. "Please Help Kill the Giant Wilderness Bill by going to the Save the West web site and e-mailing members of the sub-committee which will be hearing HR 1975 on October 18. The five states (including Oregon) targeted have a very small representation in Congress. We have a better chance to kill it in Committee--it is up to us to act NOW! Thanks, Aubyn Curtiss," Montana Senator. http://savethewest.net/takeAction.htm (KBC NOTE: At stake are 23 million total acres of new wilderness in five states)
