Boating legislation
March 19, 2008 Dear BoatUS Member, We need your help now to pass NEW federal legislation in the Senate that would provide a permanent exemption for recreational boats from the upcoming EPA discharge permit requirement. Remember that if we don't get legislation passed, we all need to get EPA permits to operate our boats effective 9/30/08! We appreciate the time that many of you have already taken to let your Senators or Representatives know your support of S. 2067 or HR 2550 "The Recreational Boating Act of 2007." Now there is a new Senate Bill #2766 "The Clean Boating Act of 2008", which is more politically viable, and our best chance to eliminate the permit requirement before it comes in effect on September 30, 2008. Please pick up the phone or email today and ask your Senators to sponsor and vote YES for S 2766. Although Congress is on recess this week and next, we need their staff to hear from us so that this bill can move as soon as the Senators are back in Washington. Remember to contact both of your Senators: (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin) State Phone Email Illinois Senator Barak Obama (D) (202) 224-2854 Visit BoatBlue.org Senator Dick Durbin (D) (202) 224-2152 Visit BoatBlue.org Indiana Senator Richard Lugar (R) (202) 224-4814 Visit BoatBlue.org Senator Evan Bayh (D) (202) 224-5623 Visit BoatBlue.org Iowa Senator Charles Grassley (R) (202) 224-3744 Visit BoatBlue.org Senator Tom Harkin (D) (202) 224-3254 Visit BoatBlue.org Michigan Senator Carl Levin (D) (202) 224-6221 Visit BoatBlue.org Senator Debbie Stabenow (D) (202) 224-4822 Visit BoatBlue.org Wisconsin Senator Herb Kohl (D) (202) 224-5653 Visit BoatBlue.org Senator Russ Feingold (D) (202) 224-5323 Visit BoatBlue.org |
