Senators Want Timeout on Monuments

Washington, D.C. – Locally-produced collaboration and consensus should drive decisions made about changes in federal land use, say Idaho Senators Mike Crapo and Jim Risch. Both Senators have written Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar, asking him to discard a federal process of designating national monuments that too often utilizes a "one-size-fits-all" mentality that does not provide for local input. The letter comes as the Obama Administration contemplates plans to potentially designate as much as 13 million acres of public and private land as national monuments.

What are they going to do about the Mexicans living on the land? That is an issue larger than OHV riders as far as i'm concerned. When I was riding in the White river National Forest north of Vail back in 2007. I had seen several Mexican settlements set up where they were living out there. One of them out in a large grassy bottom was an old logging trailer that had a section of 12' culvert pipe up on it with steps going up to the back of it and a stove pipe out the roof. They had no less than 6 55 Gallon blue plastic drums for water storage outside of it. 4 Mexicans were standing out in front of it.

Have not heard one complaint of anything like that. But let me drive by on my UTV and I am a menace to society.

My initial guess is that they would all be rounded up, forced to complete a Census form, be subjected to any Health Care they may need, then be forced into Public Housing and food assistance programs???

Thats the reason for the hidden cameras out there. So they can get an acurate Census count.
