Subject: [MDBirding] Death / Taxes and now Budget Cuts - the next SURE THING


I will suggest that some means of replacing inevitable budget cuts be found.�

I don't�pretend to have the solution, but if DUCK STAMPS had never been proposed (was it) in the 1930's, we would have far fewer waterfowl of all kinds to enjoy today.

The House of Representatives is planning to cut over $50 million in funding for key bird conservation programs in its budget.��If passed by the full House and Senate, these destructive cuts will harm birds and other wildlife, and undo decades of successful conservation efforts.
