Matthew 28: 1:8 "Now,
after the Sabbath, as the first
day of the week began to dawn,
Mary Magdalene and the other
Mary came to see the tomb. And
behold there was a great
earthquake; for an angel of the
Lord descended from heaven, and
came and rolled back the stone
from the door, and sat on it.
His countenance was like
lightning, and his clothing as
white as snow. And the guards
shook for fear of him, and
became like dead men. But the
angel answered and said to the
women, "Do not be afraid, for I
know that you seek Jesus who was
crucified. He is not here; for
He has risen, as He said.
"Come, see the place where the
Lord lay. And go quickly and
tell His disciples that He is
going before you to Galilee;
there you will see Him. Behold,
I have told you." So they went
out quickly from the tomb with
fear and great joy, and ran to
bring His disciples word."

Letter from Author Elaine Willman,
introducing her new book
'Slumbering Thunder'.
"In
2016 with the escalated expansion of
the Executive Branch federal
agencies, BIA, BLM, USFW, BOR,
etc... NOW is the time to become
informed and push back on the
federal government over-reaching in
our Western states. Both of these
books will help; Slumbering Thunder
is a specific reference tool for
pushing back." HERE is KBC News

KBRA/KHSA
Special Interest Stench Follows
Write-In Candidates,
A Smith,
KlamathNews.com
3/25/16. "Now
think about the write-in candidates
that challenge
Dennis
Linthicum for
the State Senate and
E.
Werner Reschke for
State Representative. A group of
self-appointed people met in private
to draft candidates...It is no
coincidence advocates for the KBRA
are also the same people who have
drafted these write-ins.
This special interest group is also
encouraging Democrats and
Independents to switch to the
Republican party for the primary.
People are not switching because
they are changing their political
views and now want to become
Republicans, but to help steal the
Republican nomination away from
conservatives — the base of the
Republican party and the base of
this community."
Psalm 128: 1-4 "Blessed is
everyone who fears the Lord, who
walks in His ways. When you eat the
labor of your hands, you shall be
happy, and it shall be well with
you. Your wife shall be like a
fruitful vine in the very heart of
your house, your children like olive
plants all around the table."

U.S. Rep Doug LaMalfa Statement
Regarding Klamath Dam Removal
Meeting March 16, 2016,
California District 1, 3/17/16.
"This entire process has been mired
in secrecy and appears to have been
conceived as a way to exclude the
public from the decision-making
process on an issue that very much
affects them...No government entity,
much less three, should be
conducting business behind closed
doors to avoid pushback from the
public...None of the agencies of the
Federal or State governments may
settle a bi-state water agreement,
divest federal land to tribes or
others, nor can they appropriate
federal dollars. All of those are
functions of Congress...."
Klamath River
dam removal goes public.
Opposition runs high at California hearing,
H&N 3/17/16. "...for the Tribes to become
a signatory party to the amended KHSA, the
tribal membership must vote in favor of that
first..." KBC Note: Members of the
public and Klamath Project irrigators are
not allowed to vote; only the farm leaders.
Siskiyou and Klamath Counties, home of the
Klamath River Dams, oppose the deals.

MAYOR
KELSTROM IS CALLING ALL DEMOCRATS,
INDEPENDENTS AND LIBERAL "REPUBLICANS":
Candidates sought to challenge Linthicum;
Reschke. Write-in campaign a
possibility, but tough, H&N 3/17/16.
"Critics believe this was an orchestrated
effort to block others from filing, and
local voters discussed counter-measures
Wednesday to prevent Linthicum and Reschke
from being elected. Critics claim both would
be ineffective for the Basin due to their
extreme right-wing stance."
KBC NOTE:
Whitsetts chose to retire after the
"most
destructive month in Oregon legislative
history." In the
past, people chose to challenge Senator Doug
and Rep Gail Whitsett, and the challengers
lost. The Herald and News has stated in
articles that Whitsetts "resigned" and
"blocked" other candidates from running,
which is not true. They chose not to run,
and anyone was able to challenge them and
run for election since Whitsetts' terms were
up.

Senator Doug Whitsett, Senate District 28, posted to KBC
3/17/16. "The new law doubles the renewable portfolio
standard by eliminating the use of all coal-generated
electricity in Oregon...The act contains two provisions that
functionally prohibit the formation of a municipal utility
district (MUD) or public utility district (PUD) in PacifiCorp’s
monopoly protected service area. These poison pills serve to
eliminate the financial feasibility for any Klamath County MUD
or PUD... At minimum, it will result in at a 40 percent increase
in power costs to all PacifiCorp customers...PacifiCorp power
rates have already nearly doubled since 2005... this new
(minimum wage) law will result in wholesale destruction of
Oregon small businesses and kill many private sector jobs that
those businesses provide...Klamath and Lake Counties have some
