Sean Patrick Maloney: “reclaiming my time, if we do not fell this beetle and other invasive…”

On the recordMay 23, 2006

reclaiming my time, if we do not fell this beetle and other invasive species, they will continue to fell our trees across our country. I have an example here from APHIS of the beetle and what to look for if it goes to your States so you will know about it, and I urge my colleagues to support this amendment. This is a bipartisan amendment, and this is about the health and welfare of our economy, our environment. It has cost us zillions of dollars to stop this beetle. We need to stop it now or it is only go to cause more economic and environmental damage across our country. So I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this important amendment.
