I appreciate the invitation to speak today among these distinguished public officials about the future of Lake Tahoe, and I especially want to thank Sen.

Auburn Project Area Announcement

February 21, 2012

Speeches

I remember when we met here in Auburn in April of 2010 under imminent threat of closure, all the "experts" said that the only way to keep the Auburn Project Area lands open would be with massive federal earmarks.

The Plunder of Colfax

December 1, 2011

Speeches

In the Sierra Foothills in northeastern California lies the little town of Colfax, population 1,800, with a median household income of about $35,000.
