Default my reply

I think I will post my replies on here for everyone to share. For those who needs an email address for Bill Ketron; it is at the bottom of this letter.

Bill Ketron's reply,

And thank you Alan for taking the time to contact me about this issue. As
rules and regulations by our Federal and State government go up, it often seems
like our freedoms and the quality of our lives goes down. Angling is an age-old
tradition in our state and will always be an important part of our lives, being
that we have so many beautiful waterways in Tennessee. I will do my best to
support the protection of these waterways as well as our ability to fish on
public waters in Tennessee. Thank you for your time and your support.

Senator Bill Ketron

P: (615) 741-6853
F: (615) 253-0282

Some of my facebook friends, who aren't even fishermen, signed it. That's good to see. Government overreach is a problem even if it doesn't directly affect you.

I signed it, but I would add this warning...be careful you are not duped into "signing" some petitions that have nothing to do with the Army Corps issue. The site tried to get me to sign 3 additional petitions that had to do with various hyper-political issues.
