Subject: A Qucik LWCF Poll MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Subject: A Quick LWCF Poll The Environmental News Network (ENN) is conducting a non-scientific, online poll on the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF). Currently, LWCF is slightly behind in the poll because some anti-LWCF folks have gotten wind of it. Please take a couple of seconds to register "YES" for LWCF by visiting: Vote YES for LWCF. LWCF gets a nice piece of CARA, the Conservation and Reinvestment Act now being considered in both Houses of Congress. CARA proposes to take 1/2 of the Federal revenue from off-shore oil and mineral production and put it into coastal restoration projects, wildlife conservation programs, and the Land and Water Conservation Fund (which was legislated over a decade ago but Congress always cuts it out of the budget each year), as well as a little for Historic Preservation and Urban Parks.
