The Trail PAC is proud to announce its official “Be a
Trail Hero” launch into the 2014 midterm election cycle. Trail voters “got into the game” in the 2012
election by helping elect a number of pro-access legislators into Congress
including Nevada’s U.S. Senator, Dean Heller.
TPAC expects to build on that success in this election cycle.
Congress has a growing number of legislators who are
off-road enthusiasts themselves and support responsible OHV use on federal
lands. Members of the U.S. House of
Representatives have introduced and passed legislation that supports public use
of motorized trails. They have also
passed bills and held oversight hearings to address unwarranted and politically
motived excessive OHV-related regulations at the EPA, Forest Service, and BLM.
However, U.S. Senate leadership is jamming similar
regulatory reform efforts in that legislative body. Off-road voters must weigh in to change that
unresponsive paradigm. With your help
in 2014, we can remove those roadblocks by electing a pro-access majority to
the U.S. Senate and maintain and grow our majority in the House of
Representatives.
TPAC’s strategy is to target/support up to 11 key senate
races in states such as Alaska, Arkansas, Louisiana, Michigan, and
Montana. We also look to target up to 15
important battleground House races in various congressional districts including
Arizona CD2/CD3, California CD7/21, Colorado CD6, Utah CD4, and West Virginia
CD3.
TPAC is pleased to announce that we are supporting Steve
Daines for Senate in Montana as our 1st targeted senate race. Last week, MT access leader, Amy Brieder,
presented Steve Daines with an official TPAC donation at Yellowstone
Motorsports in Belgrade, MT.
After the presentation by Amy, Steve Daines said, “A big
thanks to TrailPAC for their support of my election to U.S. Senate. Access to
our outdoor recreation is a big part of the lives of Montana families and I
will work to preserve these opportunities for future generations to enjoy.”
The TPAC Trail Access Victory Fund has set a goal to
raise $10,000 or more between now and the FEC filing deadline of January 31.
Your donation WILL allow us to support key pro-trail candidates in battleground
races. TPAC is asking you to be a TRAIL:
HALL OF FAME MEMBER, HERO, CHAMPION,
LEADER, or SUPPORTER.
Each day this week as we update the donor list, TPAC will
be featuring Off-Road Champions from King of the Hammers, National Enduros,
Best in the Desert, ISDE, King of the Motos, National Mototrials, and National
Hare & Hound who are supporting TPAC’s effort to elect pro-trail candidates
to Congress.
Trail users who donate will have their first
name/city/state listed in the following categories:
HALL OF FAME - DONATE $1000 - $5000
TRAIL HERO - DONATE $500 - $999
TRAIL CHAMPION - DONATE $200 - $499
Sean – Roseville, CA
Jerry – Oakdale, CA
Andres – Lafayette, CA
TRAIL LEADER - DONATE $100 - $199

Richard – Minneapolis, MN
TRAIL SUPPORTER - DONATE $25 - $99

*MAKE YOUR DONATION AT THE TPAC LINK BELOW:
You will note there are several names already on the list
because they were anticipating our formal launch and wanted to be first out of
the gate. Again, the donation lists will be updated each day until the FEC
filing deadline of January 31.
You made a difference in 2012, now let’s build on that
success in 2014!
