Salmo g - Nice to hear from you. Haven't heard from you in awhile. You've probably been spending all your time on the water.... Good to see you're still with us.

This bill will go nowhere since the 107th Congress is about to adjourn and all pending legislation will die a peaceful death, including this abomination.

However, this is a preview to the 108th Congress. With one party in control, you can bet there will be a lot of attacks on environmental legislation including opening the Arctic NWR to oil drilling, rewriting the ESA, the Clean Water Act, etc. The Dems can hold off the worst of the bunch but alot of bad stuff can happen in two years. It's our job to point out how these things can and will affect our quality of life. And the quality of our fishing.......
