<DIV>My most recent blog reports on last week's hearing before the Senate
Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, Subcommittee on Public Lands,
Forests, and Mining (!). This hearing focused on S. 2240 - a bill
that seeks to mandate more aggressive action by federal agencies to control
invasive species - especialy invasive plants. Please share with your
colleagues.</DIV>
