[FONT=&quot]Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Chris Horgan over at Stewards of the Sequoia sent this alert about the America's Great Outdoors Initiative (AGO Initiative), and I thought I'd pass it along to our members.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I have pasted the alert below. Please take a couple of minutes to read it over![/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Click Here for our latest update on the AGO Initiative. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Thanks,[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Off Road Recreation and Access to Public Lands Losing the High Ground[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Dear Ric,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]We told you in our last Save The Trails alert that Voting Works and it does. Many of you took two minutes to vote for Ideas in the America Great Outdoors Initiative. Your votes catapulted Ideas like "Enhancing OHV Opportunities on Public Lands", "More Than Enough Wilderness" and "Preserving OHV Recreation Use For Families" to take the top spots, as you can see in the table below left.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]However that was back on 7/25/2010. Since that time apparently the anti access folks have been scrambling to negate all of your votes by asking their members to DEMOTE all the Ideas you thought were good and PROMOTE ideas about land closure, as you can see in the 9/2010 table below right.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Take a few minutes to VOTE NOW to turn the tables, take back our public lands to keep them open for our children.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A Report will be given to the President next month showing the Top Rated Ideas, so we have a month to Take Back the High Ground and be sure the Ideas we like are on top. We can easily do this, after all we are the majority. So now it is time to show them they awakened the sleeping giant. Please go to the site and see for yourself and PLEASE VOTE FOR (PROMOTE) any IDEAS you think are GOOD and (DEMOTE) any IDEAS you think are BAD[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Here is the list we provided of IDEAS to PROMOTE and DEMOTE[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]http://www.savethetrails.us/AGO-Vote.html[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]TOP INNOVATOR[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]While yours truly, Chris Horgan, continues to be the Top Innovator that will mean nothing if the Ideas I have posted about keeping public lands open and promoting forest health through much needed active management remain at the bottom of the list. Those are the kind of IDEAS you, your family and friends need to VOTE for with a vengeance.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]You can click on my Name under Top Innovator once you get onto their site and see a list of all the Ideas I have posted and easily vote for them.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Your votes are going to make a statement to the President to keep public lands open to all[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]We need to keep the pressure on. VOTE NOW. Please ask your friends and family to vote.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]It only takes a minute to register and VOTE. They require only your name, password and city.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If you have already Voted then Please VOTE for any new IDEAS you like.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Thomas Jefferson once said, "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for a people of good conscience to remain silent". Many of us have remained silent, but that is changing.....[/FONT]
