Off-road voters and organizational leaders from across the
country joined our Tele-Townhall conference call today with Rep. David Valadao
(R-21st CA) and Peter Graves, RNC's Regional Political Director.
This conference call marks the Trail Political Action
Committee’s (TPAC) official Kickoff for the 2016 presidential election. As TPAC
supporters, you have the opportunity to greatly impact the 2016 presidential
elections and to build on our highly successful efforts in previous election
cycles to champion responsible OHV recreation via the electoral process. Below is a statement from Congressman Valadao:
Statement from
Congressman David G. Valadao (CA-21)
As a Member of
Congress, I know how critical grassroots involvement is to the political
process. In order to advance H.R. 1838; the Clear Creek National Recreation
Area and Conservation Act through the legislative process, the continued
support of TPAC and the trail community is absolutely critical. I look forward
to working with the OHV community on Clear Creek and other important land-use
issues.
National Moments that are created without substantive local
stakeholder involvement was an important topic of concern also discussed on the
call.
Peter Graves highlighted several key battleground senate
races in Nevada and Colorado as being important campaigns for trail voters to
be engaged in. Graves also noted the
importance of having the grassroots engaged in the election process.
In order to bolster the ranks of pro-access politicians who
will support OHV recreation friendly legislation and oppose anti-access
proposals and agency overregulation, TPAC plans to support elected Members of
Congress who have fought for us and now need our help as they face tough races.
As before, TPAC will
also be looking for new candidates in battleground states who support our issues
and need our support and votes.
This is also a great opportunity for you to help stock
TPAC's war chest for this election cycle.
TPAC expects to play an important role in battleground states where
races are often decided by just a few votes.
