Here are two more resolutions to present at your caucus.  Sierra Club works
in cooperation with many organizations across the state and we have
supported these resolutions in the past.

Bottle Bill

We support legislation to expand the list of beverage containers which are
covered under Iowa's Bottle Bill (the beverage container control laws in
Iowa Code Chapter 455C) to include, tea, water, fruit or vegetable drinks,
sports drinks, and other non-carbonated beverages excluding milk; also to
increase the handling fee paid to those who provide redemption services from
one cent per container to at least two cents per container.


Resource Enhancement and Protection (REAP)

The future of our quality of life in Iowa requires State leadership and
citizen stewardship to protect and enhance outdoor recreation opportunities,
natural resource assets, cultural and historical heritage.  We therefore
request that the ___________ Party support full funding of the Resource
Enhancement and Protection (REAP) program at $20 million in FY 05 from the
Environmental First Fund, comprised of state revenue from gaming receipts.
