CLOUT Alert SB5627

[Grumpy]

The Senate Ways and Means Committee MUST PASS this Bill by the end of this
week or it is DEAD!
Your friends who are constituents of the Senate Natural Resource Committee
got this Bill through that committee. IT IS NOW YOUR TURN to MOVE IT!

This Bill is a GOOD one for OHV users! Let's Git'R Done! Let's make it
clear to the DNR's law enforcement chief Larry Raedel that vehicles with an
ORV sticker are exempt from having to also pay for a Discover Pass to use
our OHV areas!

As you may know DNR Law Enforcement has REFUSED to obey a WA Superior Court
ruling that current law exempts dual registered vehicles (street license
plate plus ORV sticker) from needing a Discover Pass when using OHV areas.
One user has now been ticketed a second time at Tahuya after winning his
battle against the first citation. Winning required him to appeal to
Superior Court after the county Justice Court ruling against him.

This is ridiculous and is a result of the inappropriate and contrary
interpretation of existing law by the DNR's law enforcement chief, Larry
Raedel who has instructed his officers to follow his own personal
interpretation of the law regardless of how the courts rule.

This Bill will clarify the law to where even DNR's Larry Raedel will not be
able to misconstrue it to assume dual registered vehicles with an ORV
sticker need a Discover Pass to use OHV areas!

Please help get this passed! Do it NOW! Tomorrow may be too late! Your
legislator is scheduled to hear this Bill on February 4, 2015.

Why should you vote YES for SB5627? This Bill will keep me from paying
twice to recreate on state land when I already pay for that use with my ORV
permit. Also, it will make me believe that you believe in fair play when it
comes to funding recreation.
