"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men."

Young Is On the Record

While County Commissioners Terry Willis and Mike Wilson continue to fence-sit on the Wild Olympics Campaign and Congressman Norm Dicks is invisible, Jesse Young is on the record. Young, who's looking to defeat Norm Dicks in 2012, says:

"Genuine concern for all is needed when making decisions concerning our environment. Will adding 37,000 acres to the Olympic National Park and designating the streams as “Wild and Scenic” and the forests as “Wilderness” really help the residents of the District and our environment? The balanced answer is decidedly "No", and I am against the Wild Olympics proposal."
