Cynthia Lummis actually said...

"Should the Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service be basing listings and other important decisions on studies and opinions that cannot be accessed or verified?"

"H.R. 4316, The Endangered Species Recovery Transparency Act, introduced by Rep. Lummis, would require the FWS to report the resources used to respond to ESA litigation."

"I strongly support the passage of these measures to improve the ESA and urge the committee to advance them in the legislative process."

"It is high time to stop wasting taxpayer dollars and rewarding frivolous and abusive litigation."
