Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that Congressman Wyden introduced a bill to fully realize programs under the Land and Water Conservation Fund set up 50 years ago by President Kennedy. S 338
Now as you have heard from our President and everyone else, the federal government is looking at layoffs and is trillions of dollars in debt. That being said in all the "wisdom" of our Congressman from Oregon, the bill amount to fund the LWCF is $900 million per YEAR.
This came from the TNC website so you might want to check it out.
