Many thanks to Pacific Legal Foundation for the filing of Amicus Curae in our Bohmker (Oregon SB 838/SB 3) case
submitted in Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court by the Galice Mining District and other organizations
on behalf of
American Mining Rights Assoc (AMRA),
Public Lands For The People (PLP),
Western Mining Alliance (WMA),
New 49ers,
Waldo Mining District,
Slate Creek Mining District,
Resources Coalation,
Bedrock Prospectors,
Oregon Mining Association,
American Exploration & Mining Association,
Baker County (OR) and Josephine County (OR).

This is the first time in the decade plus that I've worked on mining issues that I've ever seen so many organizations
come together to fight for one case. It is now or never to head off the rampant anti-mining scourge infecting the Far West.

Still there is no mention of the fact that "motorized" activities and usage are allowed to occur by all other user groups. The only user group who is "denied" the right to use motors is the miner. It escapes me as to why that issue is not part of all the previous attempts to combat the earlier courts rulings. It escapes me...but I am no lawyer/attorney.
