Rollins Pass Restoration Association

Dear Supporters of Rollins Pass Restoration Association:

We’ve been in existence for many years and now it’s time to hear YOUR VOICES. At the Annual Meeting we discussed posting a petition I created on We the People, a new feature on WhiteHouse.gov, and we ask for your support. Will you add your name to mine? If this petition gets 99,999 signatures by July 10, 2016, the White House will review it and respond: We hope you will SHARE this with at least 10 others. Please forward or print it and give it to your friends and family. Ask them to forward it to 10 people as well. It’s hard work to get to such a large number of votes.

We the People allows anyone to create and sign petitions asking the Obama Administration to take action on a range of issues. If a petition gets enough support, the Obama Administration will issue an official response.

You can view and sign the petition here: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov//petition/please-help-re-open-us-national-historic-moffat-road-and-needles-eye- tunnel-over-rollins-pass-colorado

Please help re-open the U.S. National Historic Moffat Road and Needles Eye Tunnel over Rollins Pass, Colorado.

Following is the text of the petition: Require the U.S. Forest Service and Boulder, Gilpin and Grand, Counties, Colorado to enforce the 2002 James Peak Wilderness and Protection Area Bill (a.k.a. Public Law 107-216) passed by Congress and signed into law by President G.W. Bush b) Rollins Pass Road. --If requested by one or more of the Colorado Counties of Grand, Gilpin and Boulder, the Secretary shall provide technical assistance and otherwise cooperate with respect to repairing the Rollins Pass road in those counties sufficiently to allow two-wheel-drive vehicles to travel between Colorado State Highway 119 and U.S. Highway 40…. dated September 2001. Reopening the National Historic Rollins Pass Road will again allow 2-wheel drive, 4-wheel drive and all off-highway vehicles passage between Rollinsville and Winter Park, Colorado.

I posted the link to the Presidential Petition below and many of you read it, but I don't think you were aware that YOUR VOTE COUNTS!

1. Please take a minute and go to: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov//petition/please-help-re-open-us-national- historic-moffat-road-and-needles-eye-tunnel-over-rollins-pass-colorado and create a user with your name and email address.

2. They will send you an email that you must then respond to so they know you are a person (not a machine).

3. Then come back here and SHARE this posting with your friends and email it to your relatives. We need YOU and all your family and friends to reach the goal of 100,000 signatures!

Thank you for joining in the movement. I will keep you posted.

Su, Co-President Rollins Pass Restoration Association
