An estimated 1,600 people are missing on public land, many of them in Colorado.
In 2013, Streetman continues,"I emailed Dave Paulides and suggested a petition to demand federal accountability for the missing. A year later, there was still no petition, so I asked Dave if he thought it was a good idea for me go ahead and float one."," which Paulides helped promote — and by 2017, it had attracted more than 10,000 signatures.Senator Michael Bennet
Meanwhile, Streetman says,"Joe Neguse became our congressional representative here. I went to a town hall of his and spoke with his communications director, Jill Grano, and briefly with Representative Neguse. ... When it became clear Senator Bennet's office was not moving ahead on the issue, I communicated this to Representative Neguse's office. It was a better fit to Representative Neguse's work, because he was heading the congressional committee on public lands.
Although she knew a measure was in the works"since Dave Paulides and I worked with the team at Representative Neguse's office on drafts of it last spring," Streetman says, there was radio silence over the summer. But that changed on September 16, when"Abbie Callahan at Representative Neguse's office emailed the bill. ... This caught me by surprise, and as delighted as I am, it is still sinking in.
Streetman does see some shortcomings, though:"I would have liked to see previous cases included. In other words, those who went missing in past decades may not be included. If they are in NAMUS, it does not seem that their entries will be updated to contain the fields added for the future entries of the missing on federal lands. I had wanted the entries to be permanent and undeletable. Instead, there will be archiving of cases, in keeping with the way the NAMUS database is maintained.
