TIMING!  The action alert I just sent to you about contacting senators to
oppose amendment 3121 to SF 344 did not have enough time to make a
difference.  The amendment passed, with little debate.  Senator Mary Lundby
worked to get a small improvement made to the amendment, but it is still in
the bill.

Hopefully, Gov. Vilsack will oppose this bill when it gets to his desk.  But
it is still a good idea to contact your senators about the importance of
using the state endangered/threatened species lists.  Passing this amendment
sets a bad precedent.
