This bill is bad for us. It will hurt our land and our resources. We need to stop it before it's too late. It's not right for them to take away what belongs to us. We must stand up and fight against this. It's not fair to us and our future generations. We need to protect what is ours. Don't let them take it away from us. Stand up and say no to this bill. It's not right.
