POLITICIANS TRYING TO ENDANGER 3 SPECIES

http://chicagotribune.com/news/metro/chicago/article/0,1051,ART-24682,00.html

This was the recent post about Illinois legislators trying to remove
species from the endangered list because they get in the way of
development. Letters to the legislature are needed, but if you want to send
only one letter, send it to:

Mr. Brent Manning, Director
Illinois DNR
524 S. Second
Springfield, Illinois 62701
Phone: 217/785-0075
Electronic Mail: pio@dnrmail.state.il.us
