House of Representatives Restores Long Island Sound Funding

The House of Representatives has reauthorized the Long Island Sound Restoration Act. You may remember (from this) that earlier in the year it was cut from the budget. You also may remember (from this and this) that Rep. Shays’s office and Audubon New York responded that it wasn’t unusual to have to fight for funding for the Sound and that they were confident that they would prevail again. Glad to say, they were right.
