I Love Mountains Day starts with a bang
-Beth Rosdatter
It is hard to judge the exact numbers, but certainly hundreds of KFTC members and allies are already here in the Capitol Annex flooding the hallways in a sea of red. In fact, the groups from Louisville, Lexington, and Madison County are so large that we decided to reserve large rooms just to accommodate each group in an attempt to bring the legislators from each area to us, instead of flooding their offices with hundreds of individual meetings.
Despite this, the reception area from the House offices on the 3rd and 4th floors of the annex are completely filled up with KFTC members from other parts of the state, all of whom are concerned about mountaintop removal mining. Also of note, the House Natural Resources committee (where the Stream Saver bill is being held up) scheduled for this morning was canceled. I don't know if we can claim responsibility for that, but it is an interesting fact.
Here are some photos from earlier this morning. Check back on the blog later today for more updates!
