TRAIL PAC BREAKING NEWS - Pro-Trail Congressman Herger Retires from the House

The Trail PAC has breaking news that Congressman Wally Herger will not be seeking another term in Congress.  As many of you know, Herger has been a champion for responsible OHV recreational use of public lands.

According to FLASHREPORT, Herger will be endorsing State Senator Doug LaMalfa in a run for his House seat.

FLASHREPORT on Herger Announcement

LaMalfa has also been a strong supporter of responsible OHV recreation. Based on LaMalfa’s history in the state legislature, TPAC believes that he also will be a pro-trail champion in the House of Representatives.  This will most certainly be an important race to watch.

Sage-Grouse Becomes Political Issue in 2012 Elections

By now, many trail voters are aware of the Obama Administration’s Greater Sage-Grouse planning effort that has started in a number of Western States.  The Trail PAC has been reviewing this issue since mid December 2011.

As the article states below, multiple-use of public lands including recreational access is at risk. 

Jan. 9 - Article on Sage-Grouse Planning and Potential Impacts

http://www.mineweb.com/mineweb/view/mineweb/en/page72068?oid=142706&sn=Detail&pid=102055

TPAC believes the 2012 election cycle is critically important to trail voters since it will be those elected federal officials -- with oversight and appointment/confirmation responsibility of unelected regulators -- who make the ultimate decision on how many public land users will be impacted by Sage-Grouse related closures.

To help TPAC elect pro-access candidates, please donate today!

OFF-ROAD RACING ICON ENDORSES THE TRAIL PAC

BEECHER, IL, (Dec. 12)  – A 31 time International Six Days Enduro medalist and business owner endorsed The Trail PAC today.  Jeff Fredette, president of Fredette Racing Products in the Midwest has been a strong supporter of land-use advocacy.

Jeff Fredette, Founder of Fredette Racing Products, states, “I believe that trail riders throughout the country must get involved in the political process to keep trails open for family oriented OHV recreation. Off-roaders only have ourselves to blame if we stand by on the sidelines while well-funded anti-access political action committees support politicians who vote to close trails.”

“I believe The Trail PAC will play an important roles in the 2012 election by directing resources to key races where the pro-trail candidates needs some extra support.  I am proud to endorse the efforts of TPAC this election cycle,” Fredette concludes.
