Bush signs bill creating Wild Sky


Posted at 6:41 am by Jerry Cornfield

U.S. Sen. Patty Murray phoned this morning with the news that President Bush has signed the legislation to create the Wild Sky Wilderness.

She said she learned of the president's action in a phone call which means she didn't see him do it nor get the pen he used to affix his signature to the new law.

There was no disappointment in her voice.

"It has been a long time coming. This feels real," she said.

An event to mark the end of this political journey is being organized for May 30.
