I have previously posted on this issue with Federal agents search Gibson Guitar factory in Memphis and CEO of Gibson Guitar a Republican donor; Democrat competitor uses same wood.
Most of The Westerner today is devoted to this issue, since it involves both endangered species and music, two issues we endeavor to cover here. Plus, this is a prime example of how "do-good" legislation sponsored by a Republican and signed into law in 1900 by a Republican President, and later amended and signed into law by George W. Bush to include wood, can have far reaching consequences never envisioned by the proponents.
Once a power of this nature is granted to the government, you can rest assured it will be abused.
Issues of concern to people who live in the west: property rights, water rights, endangered species, livestock grazing, energy production, wilderness and western agriculture. Plus a few items on western history, western literature and the sport of rodeo... Frank DuBois served as the NM Secretary of Agriculture from 1988 to 2003. DuBois is a former legislative assistant to a U.S. Senator, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of Interior, and is the founder of the DuBois Rodeo Scholarship.
