Appreciates Landers’ viewpoint

Sun., Nov. 7, 2004

The Spokesman-Review

I would like to thank Rich Landers for speaking up on issues that have an impact on recreation in our great outdoors. Sad to say, the Bush administration has repeatedly based decisions for our outdoors based on politics and not on the best science available. If sportsmen and outdoor recreationists do not speak up, then over time we will lose what we have and will have only ourselves to blame.

I would like to hear more from Mr. Landers regarding how political decisions will change our opportunities to enjoy one of the best areas in the United States for outdoor recreation.
