ANTI MINING BILL CLICK to read I would direct your comments to the Senate Environment and Natural Resource Committee, because SB 401 and SB 838 is set for a hearing April 15 at 3:00pm The first name below is the Senate President, he is not on the committee, but we should flood his office too, for letting an unconstitutional Bill go to committee. I understand that he can pull the Bills back from the committee he has sent these to. We need to let him know of our displeasure as well. Guy.
