Joe's Sample Letter about HR 4089
JOE’S SAMPLE LETTER:
H.R.4089 SPORTSMEN’S HERITAGE ACT OF 2012 or
DESTROYING THE WILDERNESS ACT OF 1964
Dear Senator (fill in name):
As
someone who is deeply concerned about our natural lands and wildlife, I
strongly urge you to oppose H.R. 4089, known euphemistically as the
“Sportsmen’s Heritage Act of 2012.”
This dangerous bill would have a
devastating effect on wildlife and the environment by opening almost all
public lands, including national parks, to recreational hunting. It would
spread the use of toxic lead ammunition that hunters use, and it would amend
the Marine Mammal Protection Act to allow trophy hunters to import polar
bear trophies from Canada into the U.S. for bears that were killed before
2008 when they were covered under the Endangered Species Act. In short, it
is a bill promoted by a small special interest group in an attempt to
dominate our public lands.
I join millions of American citizens in
strongly opposing H.R.4089 and would appreciate if you did all within your
ability to prevent its passage in the Senate.
Sincerely,
(your name)
