Senators Udall and Bennet need our attention to get theirs

For the third consecutive year we've won the funding ban prohibiting expansion at Piñon Canyon in the House of Representatives.

It reads:

H.R.3082
Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, 2010

Sec. 125. None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made available in this title may be used for any action that is related to or promotes the expansion of the boundaries or size of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, Colorado.

We're concerned our Colorado senators are not providing support of a permanent ban and we need that support to get this stopped.

A couple of weeks ago the authorization we were promised to wipe the slate clean and make the funding ban permanent was killed in committee.


Why?

Please start calling, writing and faxing our senators to remind them how important this issue is and that we expect their support. John Salazar has been a champion as has Betsy Markey and Marylin Musgrave before her, but they can't do it without our Senators support.
