Thanks to Chaser for finding this and bringing it to our attention, and 4x4Dad for the information on using it. This link is quick and easy to use, requires less than a minute of your time and helps legislators hear us about our opinion on monies being spent for Recreational use.

Please click the link and fill in the blanks, it truly only takes a minute.

http://atvingpa.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/19304/Frustrated#Post19304

The ARRA , Americans for Responsible Recreational Access , Is currently asking all ATV/OHV trail users to please TAKE ACTION by contacting thier Senators to retain our Recreational Trails Program ( RTP ) . It is in danger of being cut from the Federal budget .

TAKE ACTION is very simple after you fill in your info for the first time . Then click ( remember me ) . Then also check the box that will E-mail you for further ATV ACTION alerts . All I do is click TAKE ACTION link , then it takes me to a form letter , finish filling in your info , then SUBMIT . It will send an informed letter to ALL of your representatives asking them to vote on your behalf for your offroad interests . It works because I always get a form letter reply from ALL of them that they recieved my letter of concern . Very easy to do to know you are being heard ....

Come on everyone . This is very easy to do and very important to our sport . RTP is the federal branch that grants your tax dollars back to places that build the very trails you want to ride .

It's like telling the Feds , YOU want YOUR money spent on YOUR interests for a change. thumbs

That would be an awesome idea Outlander . But I would'nt want to be at the back of the registration line while they explain to every rider what it is .... deal shock wtf rofl

It would be a great idea to hand out fliers with the information and ask the riders to please take the time to help support the very people that offer our great ride areas. thumbs.

I received a reply from Sen. Toomey explaining why he voted against the bill as presented to them, and why. If anyone else has recevived auotmated replies please let us know from who and what they said. Sen Toomey said;

"I voted against this legislation due to my concern over the large amount of spending it included. Our Nation is facing a $1 trillion deficit, and the Presidents latest budget proposal continues this unsustainable path for years to come. All areas of government spending must be carefully examined so that we can put our nation on the path toward fiscal solvency. Inevitably, tough choices will have to be made, and making such choices is something that I have promised to the people of Pennsylvania."

He went on to say more bu that was the meat and potatoes of his stance. Cant really say I disagree with him, however there is still a case to be made on a State govmnt level, where we can try to make the case that local financial growth is inevetiable in areas where ATVing is legal allowed and user friendly. Even with that we have to show we can police ourselves, and support the local law enforcement and rangers in keeping the idiots at bay.
