More from Mike Simpson
A further $35 Billion to allay the economic harms of dam breach is now being proposed by Rep. Mike Simpson.
I want to thank the honorable Mike Simpson, who is our representative, for his continued efforts on behalf of the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes and of Indian Country to uphold the treaty and trust responsibility.
It is no longer a question of if we can replace the dams, but rather how best to replace the services provided by the dams on a timeline that avoids extinction of salmon and steelhead.
