“Let me just say that the gentleman from California [Mr. Pombo], the roads he has put in there, 1,000 miles of this is designated on AAA maps. Golly, that is just like putting I-15 or Route 66 on it. To say we are going to close these roads that have been used for years, I personally think this is ludicrous. We are taking away access for so many people. Southern California, southern Nevada, all of those people have used these roads. I think the gentleman has come up with an excellent amendment. I would hope the Members listening to this in their offices would take into consideration, this may be California, but it may be your State next. I would hate to see you throttle down this access.”
