Note that paragraph 8 says:

“The spending bill does not include two Bush administration proposals that would have sold Forest Service lands to fund a rural-schools program and Bureau of Land Management acres to fund operations and reduce the debt.”

Good job by those of us who got involved by contacting our elected representatives about this. However, remember the immortal words of Yogi Berra…..”It ain’t over ‘til it’s over”.

Back Country Horsemen of North Georgia (Susan Shedd) received an email from Johnny Isakson, US Senator from Georgia, stating that he is a co-sponsor of the Right-to-Ride bill in the Senate.

He said:

“I understand the importance of riding activities in the United States, and I believe that the government should fight to preserve the use of federal land for riding trails and also improve facilities for the use of saddle stock. Therefore, I am a cosponsor of S.781 in order to maintain the use of pack and saddle stock animals on public lands including the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Forest Service.”

Go Johnny!!!

If you get a minute and live in Georgia, please send him a “Thank you” email and encourage him to help get the bill out of committee.
