S.2012 North American Energy Security and Infrastructure Act of 2016. made vote recommendations to benefit wildlife and habitat restoration as well as sustainable climate progress in the Energy Bill. Amendment 3830 to H.R.2028. shared a letter from 10 sportsmen and conservation groups urging support of the Cardin amendment 3830 to the Energy and Water Appropriations Bill. Amendment 3830 would ensure that the recommendations of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service are fully accounted for during the planning of water resources projects, per the Fish & Wildlife Coordination Act, which became law in 1934. This is a common sense, cost-effective way to protect our nations wildlife and improve water projects. H.R. 223 Great Lakes Restoration Initiative Act of 2016. encouraged authorizing the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative for five years, authorizing funding of GLRI at $300 million annually for fiscal years 2015-2019 to improve water quality, to protect and restore habitat and species, to prevent and control invasive species, and to address other Great Lakes environmental problems. House Amendment to S. 1523 To amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to reauthorize the National Estuary Program, and for other purposes, as amended. encouarged reauthorizing the National Estuary Program which lapsed in 2010, and maintain the funding authorization for this important program at $35 million per year while ensuring that increased amounts be directed straight to the field programs to conserve and restore estuarine habitats threatened by pollution and overdevelopment. H.R. 2901 Flood Insurance Market Parity and Modernization Act. supported H.R. 2901, which would allow those who are required to purchase flood insurance to choose between private insurers and the National Flood Insurance, because this market competition will create a better, more environmentally-focused flood insurance product. Amendment 3812 to H.R.2028. supported bolstering wind and other renewable energy production to reduce our dependency on carbon-intensive sources that fuel climate change and related risks to wildlife and habitat. S.2848 Water Resources Development Act. commended the Committee for advancing vital restoration and water infrastructure projects, encouraged improving the bill in ways that ensure the Army Corps of Engineers is best positioned to meet our nations growing water resource challenges. H.R. 897 Zika Vector Control Act. opposed a bill that takes away critical Clean Water Act safeguards critical to conserving the nation's wildlife by protecting our streams, rivers, and lakes from direct pesticide discharges. H.R. 4775 Ozone Standards Implementation Act. opposed legislation would weaken and restrict the Clean Air Acts fundamental environmental protections. Requirements meant to ensure progress toward reducing smog and soot pollution would shift from a focus on public health and environmental quality to economic costs. This bill contains a host of provisions which would harm air quality standards to the detriment of American families and our nations wildlife. H.Con.Res 89 and 112. urged a NO vote on H.Con.Res. 89 and H.Con.Res. 112, resolutions which reverse our nations commitment to a safe, sustainable energy future and to reducing our vulnerability to climate change. Turning away from these goals would harm public health, infrastructure, wildlife, and natural resources, and close off economic opportunity. S.1679, H.R.2901 Flood Insurance Market Parity and Modernization Act. encouraged reforming the National Flood Insurance Policy to create a better, more environmentally-focused flood insurance product. H.R.2576, S.697 Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act. promoted bipartisan collaboration on efforts to move reform of the Toxic Substances Control Act forward.
