H.R. 1020 adjusts the boundaries of the White River National Forest to include all national forest system lands within Summit County, CO, which are currently part of the Dillon Ranger District of the Arapaho National Forest. The White River National Forest has administered these lands for a number of years, and therefore the inclusion of the Dillon Ranger District within the White River Forest will more accurately depict the proper administration of these lands. Furthermore, the inclusion should reduce confusion within the general public as to who administers the Dillon Ranger District. The legislation will not alter the current distribution of forest receipts to the affected county governments. Mr. Speaker, this bill is noncontroversial, and I urge its passage.

I believe we should have truth in advertising in everything that is put across the airwaves, but the Shays-Meehan bill does not address that. So we need to leave it to the voters and their great discretion.
