OFF-ROADERS NAME RICK BERG FOR SENATE AS A
TARGETED KEY RACE
North Bethesda, MD – Today,
the Trail PAC is proud to name, Rick Berg for Senate, as its 6th targeted key Senate
race in the 2012 election. TPAC was
founded as the first national non-partisan political action committee dedicated
solely to championing responsible off-highway vehicle recreation on designated
roads, trails, and areas on public lands through the electoral process.
The race in North
Dakota has tightened recently between Rick Berg and his opponent, Heidi
Heitkamp. Rick has a record of fighting
against over-regulation by the EPA.
Those regulations often impact trail use on public lands. Heidi is a former EPA attorney and one of her
first acts in office would be to re-elect Harry Reid as Senate Majority
Leader. Trail voters don’t want Harry
back in a leadership role where he has continually blocked House bills that
address Forest Service travel management-related closures and regulatory
reforms at the EPA.
Don Amador, Founder
of TPAC, states, “Tens of thousands of miles of historic trails and roads on
public lands have been closed over the last 4 years to OHV users. Trail enthusiasts need Rick in the Senate to
represent and support responsible access to public lands. ”
“Trail users and
other public land access groups deserve better than the status quo in the U.S.
Senate,” Amador concludes.
