Holy Mackerel · 04-02-2009, 08:14 AM

Now that I got your attention, read below this sexy beast, and Corey... FRONT PAGE!

This letter writing thing should be on the order of D-DAY!!!!!!!!!!! Less than a week for your letters to make an impact.

Lots of kayakers fishing la jolla, I counted 20-something on TUESDAY, not Saturday, not MID AUGUST!! Frickin TUESDAY AM!

We have legislators on our side, we need the guy below to allow a legislative review of MLPA.

Todays letter, cut n paste this one, can't make it any easier... Go ahead, and Fax it!!!!

April 1, 2009
The Honorable Darrell Steinberg
President Pro Tempore
State Capitol, Room 205
Sacramento, CA 95814

Dear Senator Steinberg:

The Marine Life Protection Act process requires oversight by the Legislature to ensure compliance with the law. I urge the Senate to exercise its oversight authority to investigate the numerous conflicts-of-interest in the MLPA process; the lack of funding to adequately carry out the program; and the inequitable single focus on fishing to fix the ocean. Further, I urge the Senate to investigate the cost of implementing the MLPA in light of California’s unprecedented budget shortfall. Without funding for science, monitoring and enforcement, huge sections of the ocean will be closed to fishing forever. This will unnecessarily impact the economy of coastal businesses and seafood consumers at the worst possible time in this terrible recession.

Thank you for considering my views.

Done!

Holy Mackerel · 04-02-2009, 11:24 AM

OK guys good news!! Our voices have been heard, this is a VICTORY!!!

We can stop sending letters to The Honorable Darrell Steinberg, as described in my this post.

Quote:

WOW!
Misssion accomplishd. This from our lobby reps:

Just talked to George Osborn, he said the MISSION HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED, the Senator's office has been buried with calls. We need to back off at this point.

Jim Martin / RFA

This means, that they may be willing to allow a legislative review of MLPA. Great job!!!

However, please continue to send letters to all the other legislators, the Terminator, the SAT members. I will bump that thread...

i modified some VOIP software at work to call the senators office every half hour with numerous different recordings of me and some co-worker voicing our opitions about the MLPA, it also cycles thru each of our 10 phone lines so the messages and call from # will be different each time (about 60 variations at this point).....also sent some faxes...if you have access to a VOIP system and a mic for your comp I can help set up a similar harrassment progam for you, PM me!!!

-scallywag- · 04-02-2009, 11:55 AM

DAMN!!!! i need the numbers of the good folks who should be harrassed...

travelin_lite · 04-02-2009, 12:15 PM

I'll let PAL, Mugu and Chris attest to what the guys up in LA have been doing.....and YOUR area isn't the only area being affected.

And Corey...you liar...you told me you waxed the bikin line for me....bitch

Holy Mackerel · 04-02-2009, 03:39 PM

Just updated, please keep sending in this letter via snail mail... We have made our point via fax and phone, but we DO NOT want to seem overly aggressive, and tie up their state business, it could backfire on us. Sending this letter to Darrell Steinberg is STILL needed.

By the way, feel free to fax/phone anyone else on any of the lists I have posted.... Just "cease fire" on calling or faxing The Honorable Darrell Steinberg, but again, keep this letter going, it is pretty easy!
