~~BEAR ESSENTIALS: Nov. 4, 2018~~ Last edition

I've been publishing this newsletter for 28 months and constraints on my time are such that this will be the last issue.  I can't keep going to bed at 2 AM!! The Beyond Bears Ears Blog will remain up and I will add links to current articles worth reading. There are also hundreds of links on the site if you need to reference anything from the past several years.  Otherwise, just go to Save the Bears Ears on Facebook.  Current needs and discussion will be there.  Thank you for your support during this long battle, which unfortunately isn't over.  Thank you for caring enough to stay informed and active in public lands issues.  Janet

n  Marsha Holland: Backed by Green Out-of-State Money

“The majority of Holland’s contributions are from the Salt Lake Valley, which is generally more liberal than southern Utah. And interestingly, her donations are also from supporters in Chevy Chase, Maryland, San Francisco and Berkeley, California, Boulder and  Durango, Colorado, Chicago, Illinois, and locations in states including Arizona New Jersey, Connecticut, Alabama, Ohio and Oregon.”

“With these out-of-district, out-of-state contributions, Holland’s campaign has outraised Republican favorite, Phil Lyman, by at least a multiple of 4. By contrast, Lyman, a southeastern Utah native and Commissioner in San Juan County, has received contributions exclusively from within the state, from individuals in his hometown of Blanding, as well as a handful of conservative political interests in Salt Lake City.”
