Giant_Jackpot Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 How come the PETA/Disney post gets more responses than the 3/16 post? Have you been paying attention to the news and outdoors sections recently? The 3/16 initiative has some real steam going this year, but it needs your help. Please click on the link below and find out who your reps are and send them an e-mail asking for their support. PLEASE! It only takes a few moments.If you need more info, check out the Minnesota Game & Fish Coalition or the Minnesota Outdoor Heritage Association. There are two articles in the latest Outdoor News regarding the issue as well.http://maps.commissions.leg.state.mn.us/HSOforum/districts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstroke Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Way to keep things in perspective GJ. Support the local landscape. Who cares about PETA and disney. You think they will have any kind of effect in MN, the land of 10,000 lakes, the state where boat registrations outnumber residents 2:1I wrote my congressman and senator in support of the 3/16 bill.

Tempo Fisherman Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Stable funding is essential if real progress in terms of protecting and improving our natural resources is ever going to get done in this state. I think the problem with a lack of response to this issue is that most people reading this feel that they don't have the time to get involved in politics, well guys, that's exactly why we are in the shape we are in. The people that are elected to represent us can only make a decision based on what they hear from their constituents. Please take the time to let your local politicians know how you feel on this. It only takes a few minutes to send them an email and if you don't know who to write to, just go to the link provided and fill in your address. A screen will pop up giving you all the information you will need. If you're not familiar with all the 3/16's or 4/16's jargon just go to the outdoors section of the Star Tribune, MN Outdoors Weekly, or Outdoor News HSOforum and you should be able to get enough information to make a decision. All this comes down to is politics, and whether you like it or not, all of us have a responsibility to make our voice heard. This issue, out of all the other issues that our lawmakers will face this session, deserves the chance to be voted upon by the people of Minnesota. Please answer the call to get involved by letting your local reps know how you feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy-gurl Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 I care about PETA, and you should too, whether or not it's involved in something you don't like."We should have an unethical system to include the animals, too."Fishy-gurl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
