Note to Colorado Readers

Tomorrow, 3/6/07, the House Armed Services Committee is reviewing HB 07-1069,  sponsored by a Republican Senator, Kester and a Democrat Representative, McKinley, which would withdraw Colorado State support for the use of Eminent Domain for the purpose of expanding the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site.

I plan to be on the phone a lot with every member of the committee (or their offices, most likely) and everyone who represents El Paso county, asking them to support this legislation to the fullest.

On KVOR 3/1/07 Brigadier General James Milano said they were "...Welcoming 10,000 new troop.  We have sufficient facilities and training capabilities for them..."

So what do they need more for.

Please contact them:
