"All trail-access decisions are political decisions"

The Trail Political Action Committee (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 and legislative processes.
*
The TPAC tactical goal is to target key races using state-of-the art real-time analysis where there is a tough election and the pro-access candidate needs some extra support to help to defeat their opponent.
*
TPAC is needed to counter the anti-access special interests in Washington DC who have long ago figured that contributing to closure-oriented politicians is how they will accomplish their goal of restricting OHV access on federal lands.
*
TPAC is ready to stand in that political breach to stop the flow of anti-access politicians into the Capital. TPAC will work hard to reverse that trend so that pro-access legislators will exist as the majority in Congress and the White House.

Update on Interior's Effort to Scrub OHV Recreation in Outdoor Initiative

The Trail PAC wants to remind off-road voters that their involvement in the 2012 election cycle will be of critical importance.  Many of you are aware of America’s Great Outdoors Presidential Initiative and its ongoing efforts to scrub OHV recreation from any of its reports or narratives.

Nov. 4 TPAC Blog on OHV Scrubbed in AGOP Report

It will be TPAC’s job in this election to remind politicians running for elected federal office that OHV recreation is a major and important element in the public land-use equation as highlighted in the Nov. 28 article on OHV recreation on BLM units in Southern California.

With your support and donations, TPAC will ferret out (and support) those candidates who understand and appreciate motorized recreation and access to public lands.

EPA Off-Road Dust Issue At Top of GOP Prez Candidate Debate


As off-road voters know, it’s both anti-trail politicians and the agency leads they appoint and/or confirm at the EPA and other cabinet level departments that can impact our recreational access to public and private lands.

Recently the issue of proposed EPA “dust regulations” has been at the top of the news.

Article on Newt’s Position on EPA and Dust

Newt has now joined Herman Cain as identifying the “dust issue” as one of the regulatory anti-access issues at EPA.

Here is a TV ad that talks about Cain’s position on EPA dust

 Be assured TPAC is engaged in the 2012 election debates to see where candidates stand on the issues that impact the motorized recreation community.  Your support is needed so TPAC can effectively counter the anti-trail and anti-access  PACs and candidates in this election cycle.
