Call your Congressmen and Senators.

Sad news from the wildfire-fighting front:

YREKA, Calif. — A helicopter delivering water to firefighters battling a blaze in the Klamath National Forest crashed Monday, killing the pilot, authorities said.

Investigators were trying to determine what caused the chopper to go down in “extremely rugged” mountain territory about 12 miles southeast of Happy Camp in Siskiyou County, said Duane Lyon, a U.S. Forest Service spokesman.

Call your representatives and senators now, and demand nothing less than a full withdrawal from California.
