When is enough enough? When will we have enough roadless wilderness? When will we stop to set aside more wilderness where nobody can visit? When will Rep. Rick Larsen start representing the people of his district? Rick Larsen received more than $1 million dollars from outside his district, mainly from Seattle environmentalist in his previous campaign for Congress and now it is payback time!
I testified before the Senate committee last year and this whole Wild Sky proposal is not good for anybody except Rick Larsen. It will prevent people from using a beautiful area and it will destroy a lot of recreational related jobs. In addition, it will set a precedent for the first time to include low lying areas which have been used by people for many years. On top of that it will cost $18 million in taxpayers’ dollars and it will increase the fire danger ! So when will this stop? Only when you vote the people out of office who do not represent you, but only themselves.
