Having had a long conversation with both the MVPA and also Dave Thomas, I
believe that we can all offer financial assistance, etc. What we shouldn't
do as outsiders is blitz the Kansas Legislators from outside Kansas. The
Kansas MV owners have to be at the front of this political battle.
That said, we can put our money behind their efforts. I know the MVPA is
working to organize this, Tracy's letter is evidence of it. There advice so
lets not get in the way of their strategy of having the local people provide
the political pressure. It is a good strategy.
