Be Fair, APD.
Rogue Writer, 26-06-2005 - 14:10
Read this letter recently sent to Ashland Police Chief Mike Bianca, requesting equal profiling and stricter adherence to the law for police officers. The elderly are just as serious of a road hazard as college-aged students; why, then, do I mostly see students pulled over while grandma nearly runs me over as I cross the street?

Help KSKQ and LPFM Grow: lobby G.Walden
KSKQ and Prometheus, 02-06-2005 - 12:37
Lobby GREG WALDEN next week for a very important LPFM bill due early in June. Greg Walden is key to its success! We need to call and visit Greg Walden;s office next week.
This action is exceedingly time sensitive.
Prometheus and other advocate groups
believe that getting Greg Walden to support this bill makes it a bi-partisan bill which has a much better chance of success - this bill gives LPFM's better options and more power. A local group of LPFM advocates will visit his office let us know if you are interested. See below for lobbying templates and addresses for Rep Walden's office
(Also, the piece from Prometheus below gives a clear and brief history of LPFM.)
