Another AALP push?

Now that the elections are over, it sounds like the North Cascades Park expansion proponents are preparing to jump start their failed campaign in the spring of 2013.

Here's the latest from Jim Davis of American Alps:
Unfortunately, congressional redistricting has thrown American Alps a big political surprise this year. Until now, we have been working with Congressman Larsen in the 2nd Congressional district. Redistricting has now placed 95% of the American Alps proposal area in the new 1st Congressional district, with the remaining 5% moving to Congressman Reichert’s new district. Major action on American Alps is on hold until after the November 2012 election, when we will know who the new representative will be from the 1st Congressional district.

Democrat Susan DelBene was narrowly elected for the new district so come the new year feel free to contact her about this unnecessary and costly proposal.
Meanwhile stay tuned to NOPE over the winter to see what comes of the next push by the AALP supporters.
