The people at http://action.wilderness.org/campaign/utahm09 asked me to say this:

I need your help.

The Bush administration is moving at breakneck speed with plans to drill and destroy some of the most stunning proposed wilderness areas in Utah.

The architects of these plans believe they can sneak this land grab past us in their waning days of power. We can't let them get away with it.

Utah's Red Rock canyon country is world-renowned for its stunning beauty, sandstone arches, slot canyons, and wild rivers. It's also home to precious wildlife - bighorn sheep, endangered falcons, cougars, and more.

Join me today in letting Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne know that this land is your land too. Tell him to protect the 11 million acres from rampant oil & gas development and off-road vehicle use.

Thank you for your attention. We now return you to your regularly scheduled looting and pillaging.
