On the recordApril 24, 1996
I think that whenever the U.S. Congress passes legislation, they should keep several important things in mind which I am going to describe. I think those things that enhance legislation in this House, which enhance laws, are present in this legislation. First of all, I think with the amendments by the gentleman from New York [Mr. Boehlert], this legislation will improve existing law. No. 2, this legislation provides a structure which will enhance local managers' ability to work much more closely with the State government, with the local government, with private landowners, with environmental groups, with anybody that has any kind of an interest in America's wildlife refuges. No. 3, this particular legislation continues to give local managers the flexibility they need to provide what they feel is necessary to manage wildlife in any way that they think is conducive for their conservation.
