Letter: If Outdoor Retailers don't come back, we lose

The same day we have some of the worst air in the country, the Outdoor Retailers show starts. Hard to try out athletic equipment if you can't breathe. Maybe if they are disgusted enough with the air that they decide not to come back, the Legislature will finally do something about it.

Seems money is legislators' only motivation. The health of our citizens obviously isn't a priority, but losing hundreds of millions of dollars from our economy might just do the trick.
