Send a Letter Opposing Don Benninghoven as a Member of the California Fish and Game C
Send a Letter Opposing Don Benninghoven as a Member of the California Fish and Game Commission
Urge the Senate Rules Committee to reject Benninghoven’s confirmation due to one-sided stance on the MLPA www.capwiz.com/keepamericafishing/issues/alert/?alertid=15086101 Background Since being appointed as an interim commissioner on the California Fish and Game Commission in August 2009, Don Benninghoven has consistently ignored the interests of California's anglers, exhibiting a clear lack of objectivity in the California Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) process of establishing marine protected areas. Mr. Benninghoven must be confirmed by the California State Senate in the near future in order to continue as member of the Fish and Game Commission. Given his lack of support for recreational fishing and balanced ocean conservation, the recreational fishing community in California is opposing his confirmation. The Fish and Game Commission makes the final decision on which marine protected area proposals are approved - help make sure that he is not part of such critical votes! What You Can Do Send the letter below to the California Senate Rules Committee, which is in charge of confirming new commissioners, urging a "No" vote for the confirmation of Mr. Benninghoven. ---- Organizations Opposing Don Benninghoven as a Member of the California Fish and Game Commission Partnership for Sustainable Oceans |

Thanks for the heads up Volker. Just sent one. I'll get the word out among the OC Spearos and have everyone send one.
Thanks again. |

Re: Send a Letter Opposing Don Benninghoven as a Member of the California Fish and Ga
Done and I promised my facebook friends fresh fish and/or lobster (when in season of course) if they would do so as well. If I have to dive hard for over a month to fulfill this, it would be worth it. So please ask all those people you've helped out and given fish to, to take the 30 seconds and help us out a little.
And some of the people I work with(and are my facebook friends) have had some super fresh wsb, lightly breaded and deep fried and keep asking me to bring more in. A big heaping plate of food disappeared in less than 3 minutes when they found out I brought more in the last time. So I figure I might get at least a few of them to do it, and get others to do so as well. |
