Why you should submit here, even if you already have elsewhere!

We keep them honest. If everyone only comments through the government/agency site, we have to take their word on how many comments were received. By submitting through BRC, we create an independent record of our community’s response that can’t be buried or under-reported.

We protect your voice. If this fight ends up in court, having our own record of submitted comments means we don’t have to wait a year or more for a government agency to turn over documents. We can move quickly with proof that thousands of you spoke up.
We keep you in the loop. When you comment through our site, we can send you updates on what comes next. If you only use the government/agency site, you’re depending on them to tell you what happens next — and they won’t.

Double coverage matters. Even if you’ve already commented through the government/agency site, submitting through ours makes your voice count twice — once in their system, and once in ours. That way they know the OHV community is watching and tracking every move.

For years, BRC has been trusted to run action alerts like this. Thousands of members and supporters have used this system effectively to defend access to public lands. This isn’t about collecting your info — it’s about building the strongest, most transparent record possible to hold agencies accountable.

POCATELLO, ID – The BlueRibbon Coalition (BRC) held its annual Board Meeting and Membership Meeting this last weekend in Las Vegas, NV where it has been tradition to hold the meeting during the annual SEMA show. During the meeting, Spencer Gilbert and Rebecca Antle were elected to serve as members of the BlueRibbon Coalition Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also held its election of officers. Ranch Pratt was elected to serve as the President of the Board. Shannon Welch was elected to serve as the organization’s Vice President. Rebecca Antle will serve another term as Secretary, and Crystal Crowder was elected to be the Treasurer. The future of BlueRibbon Coalition is strong as this team brings deep experience and new ideas with them to advance its mission of fighting to keep public lands open for the public.

As all forms of outdoor recreation explode in popularity, BlueRibbon Coalition is positioned to play an outsized role in shaping public policy for outdoor recreation access in the years to come. The Board and staff spent several days exploring ways to create more unity among outdoor recreation advocacy groups, ways to educate and inspire the public to support outdoor recreation, and ways to push back against the relentless efforts to restrict public access to public land.
