Pete,

Thanks for the update...

The states of these sponsors ALL receive millions of taxpayer dollars in the form of “grants” provided by the USFWS’s “Endangered Species Section 6, Non-Traditional Grants”…Michigan, Hawaii and Florida ALL receive this money (and have been for many years)…

Look for some politicians from California to sign on as well…California is the #1 recipient of these grant “gifts” from the American taxpayer…

Later,
Jim.

PS: Certain politicians from Arizona, Wisconsin and Texas will not be a shock either...
