November 6, 2024 โ Two pieces of legislation introduced by U.S. Rep. Jared Huffman (D-California) and U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pennsylvania) would strengthen conservation efforts around migratory birds and help protect them from commercial fishing operations.
โBucks and Montgomery Counties are home to hundreds of diverse species of birds and ecosystems,โ Fitzpatrick said in a statement. โMany of these migratory birds are facing threats of extinction, and we must engage in initiatives to enhance standards for the conservation of these vital species. I am proud to join this bipartisan legislation to protect vulnerable species and improve habitat conditions.โ
