Tim and I were at the Commission meeting and both spoke about the Closed Meetings. Tim spoke regarding legal action, I spoke voicing our collective voices and gave them information about our petition and read comments from the petition!

I'm putting an update together on the Commission meeting along with our efforts to continue to work with Tim's Advocacy and our numbers!

Allison from King 5 has been working with both of us to complete the picture.

One more segment tonight on King 5 at 6:30

WE NEED EVERYONE TO GO TO KING5NEWS.COM AND COMMENT ON THE STORY!!! WE NEED HUNDREDS OF COMMENTS!!

YOUR SIGNATURES ON THE PETITION MADE A MAJOR IMPACT!!!

More to come. On

I emailed King5 about how the Leg is solving the problem (for hunting) by proposing to exempt those state/tribal/gov meeting from Public Disclosure. Fish will be next.

Be interesting to see which members of the legislature are in their pocket. Of all the states that have treaty Native within their borders, we seem to have the most trouble. I do not think that the general public is aware how much trouble The Natives who have the upper hand are going to cause. I also sent emails to King 5 group.

Thanks guys!

Our next major push is the shows;

Gonna need some volunteers to pass out flyers and talk to people at the shows.

Anybody know how we can get a few passes to the shows for volunteers?

PSA has a booth and I imagine CCA has one also. Different PSA groups have booth duty on different days. Get the petitions to them....

OK, just one more comment before I 'lurke' some more.... There are over 11,000 members on PP. Assuming most care, how do we get at least half to sign petitions and/or email our elected representatives.

Kinda sad, eh?

That petition should have easily been 20,000 strong by now.

For max PR broadcast, I would suggest making this a "transparency" thing. . .not a "rec's vs. the tribes" thing. Nobody can argue against transparency. As soon as it goes anti-tribe, we lose the high-ground.

Of course if transparency leads to a greater understanding of the nature of "things", and based on that, the casual non-fishing Washingtonian takes an anti-tribe stance, then so be it.

It goes beyond simple transparency. There is a law mandating a process. This is supposed to be a country and state that follows laws. Not just when it is convenient.

Could maybe setup a ipad and people could fill out the petition info right at the booth

I'm afraid neither CCA nor the PSA groups would allow us to co-share the booth with them. They have a responsibility to represent ALL of the membership. And even if the officers agreed with an issue, they are still bound to represent all. Since their membership are "dues" paying. Unless every single one of them agreed, they cannot endorse or put their organization behind anything this political.

I understand. I do appreciate that they pass on information about these issues to their membership, and we do in fact, have many CCA and PSA members signed on the petition.

OK folks...

Spread the link to the KING5 broadcast to as many of your contacts as possible with another plea to sign the petition (provide link).

I don't know how any thinking man who watches the newscast could possibly not feel compelled to sign the petition.


What have you got to lose?

I think some guys thought this a lost cause from the start and just didn't want to waste their time. Others just don't care. But there are still a great many that just don't understand how important to the whole Co-management process this is!

Thanks guys for all your effort. We just gotta reach out one at a time and let them know!
