We need common sense laws not knee jerk reactions. Our rights are being thrown out every time we turn around these days. We are tax paying descent people and we deserve to not be treated as less than that. To make choices based on prejudice and misinformation is not wise. We are all Americans trying to enjoy and appreciate our rights as such. Let’s all defend our rights together and not be divided by fears and lack of understanding. Let’s remember how we got here and how our great country over came the harsh doctrine of a mother country that opposed our freedom. When you vote you must adhere to the responsibility to protect that which is the USA. We are all brethren under our flag. Vote for our freedoms, not against our differences.

Dear Mr. Stevens,







Thank you for contacting me about invasive species. I appreciate your comments and am grateful that you took the time to contact me.







Non-native animal species upset our ecosystems and cause damage to the environment. In addition to some other measures, the Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act (H.R. 669) would establish a risk assessment process and would prohibit the following actions: importation or transportation between states of nonnative species that are not included in the list of approved species; permit violations; and possession, purchase, sale, barter, release, or breeding of such species.







This bill has been referred to the Committee on Natural Resources. While I do not serve on this committee, I will keep your views in mind should this legislation come to the full House of Representatives for our consideration.







If you have any additional questions regarding this or other issues, please do not hesitate to contact my office. You can sign up for my newsletter and find more information on my views and what I am working on in Congress by visiting my official website at www.house.gov/himes .









Sincerely,



Jim Himes

Member of Congress
