FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







1998 FWOC Resolution No. 2:

National Forest Protection Act


The proposed national Forest Protection Act of 1997 (HR-2789) would end the ecologically destructive timber sales program in National Forests and other public lands.  It would redirect Federal funds that previously have been subsidizing timber sales into worker retraining and ecological restoration.  The Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs endorses this legislation which currently has 30 cosponsors in Congress.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ACTION: The FWOC urges its member clubs and members to write to their Congressional representatives in support of this bill.
