Permission to testify before the Commerce , Consumer and Monetary

Subcommittee of the House Committee on Government Operations was

respectfully requested and denied ( as per Ted Jacobs ) earlier this

month . Alaska has an extremely high per capita ownership and use

of three - wheel all - terrain vehicles . The insights and concern of

Alaskans need to receive a thorough review and fair consideration

if Congress and the Consumer Product Safety Commission are to act

justly on behalf of ALL U . S . residents .

Please consider the attached written testimony seriously in developing

future recommendations regarding the construction , availability ,

and use of all terrain vehicles in the United States .

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED
