CGSSA Alert:  Campaign for National Monument status in San Gabriels

Subject: Campaign for National Monument status in San Gabriels- Meeting tonight 08/26/14 1600 hrs in Baldwin Park CA

National Monument status for the San Gabriels may mean no hunting at some time, either through additional access limitations from the current Wilderness designations or that National Monuments can come under the auspices of the National Park Service (Pinnacles is an example of this.). Watershed issues implied too.
Congresswoman Judy Chu is backing this movement, apparently. She's a Dem from Pasadena/Flintridge, Husband is Mike Eng (former mayor of Monterey Park, CA State Assembly, and currently with Eng and Nishimura doing immigration law.
National monument issues can result in shooting ban attempts like in Arizona.

When: Tuesday, August 26, 4:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
