Washington, Mar 31, 2009 - It has been through the hard work and collaboration of many different groups (including land managers, recreational enthusiasts, land owners, firefighters and much more) that some of California's most scenic and environmentally-sensitive lands will protected for years to come. I'm so thankful for all who helped make this a positive bill that will benefit our entire community.

These spectacular wilderness areas are such an important part of our region’s heritage – from the ancient Native American petroglyphs in the Santa Rosa wilderness to the exquisite river valleys and mountains that are a haven to wildlife such as the endangered peninsular bighorn sheep, the southwestern willow flycatcher and Quino checkerspot butterfly. This is a win for all who love to enjoy everything that the beautiful outdoors has to offer, both now and into the future.
