MANCHIN TO VOTE TO OVERTURN UNNECESSARY, BURDENSOME PRAIRIE CHICKEN ENDANGERED SPECIES STATUS

Press Release

Date: May 3, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Agriculture and Food Animals and Wildlife

"The Administration's Lesser Prairie Chicken rule is yet another example of dangerous federal overreach. Up-listing the species to endangered status disregards the preexisting voluntary conservation efforts that are successfully protecting the bird and even increasing its population. The rule will also cause serious damage to our national agricultural economy and hinder critical oil and gas projects in favor of a radical environmental agenda. I will proudly vote to in favor of the resolution of disapproval, and I encourage President Biden to accept this clear and bipartisan rejection of his Administration's overreaching and unnecessary rule."
