Pinon Canyon - now is the time for action

For information, check my older posts here and here. The most recent e-mail is copied+pasted under the fold.

Forgive me if you've already received this email. This is a very important moment as our Senators decide whether or not they will stand with the People of Colorado and the U.S. House of Representatives.

Action Alert - Continue calls

June 25, 2007

Please continue calling and activate your email lists, blogs and phone trees today to encourage people to PHONE Senators Ken Salazar and Wayne Allard TODAY AND EVERY DAY THIS WEEK .

The Senators appear hesitant to support their constituents by placing the Musgrave-Salazar amendment onto the Senate version of the FY08 Defense Appropriations Act.

We need them to know how much we need the exact language of the Musgrave-Salazar amendment that passed the House 383-34 in the Senate version of the Military Construction & Veterans Affairs Act.

Let the Senators know how important it is that they listen to the grassroots and what 88% of the Colorado General Assembly and 91% of the House of Representatives have said - "No Expansion / No Money for Expansion at Pinon Canyon!"

Let Senator Salazar know that we are counting on him as a member of the Agriculture Committee to stand up with the House members of the Ag Committee - Marilyn Musgrave and John Salazar - to defend the agricultural economy of southeastern Colorado that feeds the entire economy of Colorado!

THE ECONOMY THAT WORKS IN SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO IS THE ECONOMY THAT WORKS - AGRICULTURE! IT CAN'T BE 'REPLACED' AND OUR SENATORS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT.

Tell Colorado's Senators to end the train of broken promises by ending funding of expansion at Pinon Canyon.

NO EXPANSION / NO MONEY FOR EXPANSION!
