The hearing was on May 23rd. It is typical for a committee to accept public comments for a week to ten days after the hearing. Sometimes they will leave the public comment period open for a month. It is still good to get your letters in to the committee, even though they had hearings last week. They will only accept comments until June 2nd, which is a Saturday, so we've been told to get comments there by Friday, June 1.
Thank you for your interest and support with action alert writing. It is a vital part of informing our representatives in Congress about the way the American public feels about Fee Demo and forest fees in particular. One letter is thought to be representative of hundreds of people, because most people won't take the time to write to Congress, which is why every letter is so important.
