 Measure S: Don’t Tread on Us!



Dear Editor,



            I’m delighted to be able vote this Nov. 4 for Measure S, a
Community Bill of Rights stating, and giving legal force to, a real
Declaration of Interdependence: we, the citizens of Mendocino County, have
the inherent right to protecct ourselves, and the natural environment has
the right to “exist and flourish within Mendocino County without harm
resulting from the unconventional extraction of hydrocarbons.”

            As explained by Mendocino County counsel’s “impartial
analysis,” a yes on S vote will “authorize the ban of unconventional
extraction of Hydrocarbons,” including the environmental and economic
catastrophe known as “fracking,” and would “supercede International,
Federal or State laws that would violate the measure.”

            My heartfelt thanks to friends and neighbors who organized,
debated , drafted, and collected signatures for Measure S, the Community
Bill of Rights. Every vote for Measure S is a message to the fracking
powers-that-think-they-be: don’t tread on us, or on our sovereign ecosystem!
