President Bush yesterday signed legislation to continue an international wetlands-protection program initiated by his father, President George Bush, to sustain migratory birds.
The bill reauthorizes the 1989 North American Wetlands Conservation Act (NAWCA) for five years to protect rare, threatened and endangered species dependent on wetland ecosystems.

"...the federal government will continue its partnership with landowners..." That should read as;
"...the federal government will continue to remove all land from its partnerships with land..."

Inasmuch as you did some bolding of various parts of the article, I'm curious as to why you wouldn't bold the part about sportsmen, state agencies, conservationists, and landowners.
Anytime you can transfer federal money to the state/local, it is good.
BTW, who were you before you got banned?
