Senator Feinstein's lame rebuttal to her 'slick' slipping in wording into the NNDA legislation.
This article is excellent, please read all the way through as where he quotes the changes in legislation such as this...THIS is what I have been trying to point out regarding the potential unintended (by some) consequences of further federal designation in any form that falls under the direct power of the current Secretary of Interior. There is nothing to stop someone in the future from altering the original defining legislation into, well another noose. Plus, I did appreciate the author's bio.
