My Letter to Congress: H.R.2420 Colorado Wilderness Act of 2011

I oppose H.R.2420 - Colorado Wilderness Act of 2011, and am tracking it using OpenCongress.org, the free public resource website for government transparency and accountability.

I am concerned about this bill because it will designate nearly 700,000 acres as Wilderness in Colorado. This Wilderness designation will make the land off limits to off-highway vehicle (OHV) enthusiasts.

3.5 million acres are already designated as Wilderness in Colorado and by a stroke of a pen this legislation proposes to increase Wilderness by another 700,000 acres without local input of those who recreates responsibly on that land.

Sincerely,
Roger Wilson
