The Dingell-Johnson Act: A Pillar of American Wildlife Conservation Introduction The Dingell-Johnson Act, officially known as the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act, is a cornerstone of wildlife conservation in the United States. Enacted in 1950, this legislation has played a crucial role in the management and preservation of fish and aquatic resources. Here we explore the history of the Dingell-Johnson Act, its purpose, and the mechanisms by which it funds wildlife conservation. Historical Context The mid-20th century was a period of significant environmental awareness and legislative action in the United States. Following the success of the Pittman-Robertson Act of 1937, which provided federal aid for wildlife restoration projects, there was a growing recognition of the need to address the conservation of aquatic resources. The Dingell-Johnson Act was introduced to extend similar support to fisheries and aquatic habitats. Named after its primary sponsors, Congressman John Dingell of Michigan and Senator Edwin Johnson of Colorado, the act was signed into law by President Harry S. Truman on August 9, 1950. The legislation aimed to create a dedicated funding source for state-level fishery management and conservation projects, ensuring the sustainable use of America's aquatic resources. Purpose and Provisions The primary goal of the Dingell-Johnson Act is to restore and manage fish populations and aquatic habitats for the benefit of both recreational anglers and the general public. The act provides federal grants to state fish and wildlife agencies for various projects, including efforts to improve and restore aquatic habitats, stocking public waters with fish to enhance recreational fishing, conducting scientific research and surveys to better understand fish populations and ecosystems, enhancing public access to fishing waters through the development of infrastructure such as boat ramps and piers, and promoting conservation education and outreach programs to foster public awareness and support for fishery conservation. Funding Mechanism The Dingell-Johnson Act is funded through a unique and sustainable mechanism that relies on excise taxes on fishing equipment and motorboat fuels. Specifically, the act imposes a federal excise tax on items such as fishing rods, reels, tackle boxes, and other related equipment. Additionally, a portion of the federal fuel tax paid by motorboat users is allocated to the fund. The revenues generated from these taxes are collected by the federal government and deposited into the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund. The funds are then apportioned to states based on a formula that considers the number of licensed anglers and the state's land and water area. States must match a portion of the federal funds with their own contributions, typically derived from fishing license fees. Impact on Wildlife Conservation The Dingell-Johnson Act has had a profound impact on wildlife conservation and fisheries management in the United States. Since its enactment, the act has provided billions of dollars in funding for state-level projects. These funds have been instrumental in restoring fish habitats, enhancing recreational fishing opportunities, and conducting vital research. One of the significant achievements of the Dingell-Johnson Act is the successful recovery of many fish species that were once threatened or endangered. For example, the restoration of habitats and careful management practices have led to the resurgence of species such as the striped bass, walleye, and various trout species. Additionally, the act has facilitated the creation and maintenance of numerous public access points, making fishing more accessible to the public and supporting the economic benefits associated with recreational fishing. Moreover, the Dingell-Johnson Act has fostered a strong partnership between federal and state agencies, conservation organizations, and the angling community. This collaborative approach has been essential in addressing complex conservation challenges and ensuring the sustainable management of aquatic resources. Conclusion The Dingell-Johnson Act stands as a testament to the United States' commitment to wildlife conservation and the sustainable use of natural resources. By providing a dedicated and sustainable funding source for fisheries management and conservation projects, the act has made significant contributions to the health and vitality of America's aquatic ecosystems. As we look to the future, the principles and mechanisms established by the Dingell-Johnson Act will continue to play a vital role in preserving the nation's fish and wildlife heritage for generations to come.

Clemente for getting us started. The bipartisan bill, 4167, got new life when Rep. Jason Morgan became the bill's sponsor. A first time Representative, Jason Morgan has come with enthusiasm, knowledge, and his personal story of life with Becker's Muscular Dystrophy.

It will include 21 people who represent the insurance companies, pharma, social workers, doctors, patients, nonprofits, geneticists, nurses, and the bio industry.We encourage you to contact your members in the Senate (on the Senate Health Policy Committee) and encourage them to pass this bill. Contact members of the Senate Health Policy Committee: https://committees.senate.michigan.gov/details?com=HLTHP&sessionId=15To contact Rep.

For over half a century Robert Byrd served the people of West Virginia in Congress, first in the House of Representatives, then in the United States Senate. He was, in fact, the longest serving US senator ever, until Michigan's John Dingell surpassed him. And if you think West Virginia's current Senator Joe manchin hasoutsize influence, he's nothing compared to what Byrd had. The one and only time I had a chance to meet Senator Byrd was n 2004. It was just a couple of months before the presidential election, in which George W Bush was running for re-election against Democrat John Kerry.. Byrd had written a book obviously intended to help carries effort, in which Byrd scathingly criticized President Bush for the Iraq War.

THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS This Week’s Discussion: Trump finally gets his moment in the sun, why he agreed to reopen the government.

Trump, instead, demonstrates that he is only the president of his base, and will be happy to rip this country apart in order to keep it, in a State of the Union address designed to incite the right. We discuss what former congressman John Dingell, who just passed away, teaches us about GOP lies and manipulation.   *Also available on Spotify, iTunes, and Stitcher-Please SUBSCRIBE   THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS Forward Nation Radio with Professor David Leventhal    If you love what you heard, Like Us and share on Facebook - Instagram - Twitter

Paul Ajegba, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s nominee to head the Michigan Department of Transportation, faced a grilling in a state Senate committee on Tuesday. And he let slip a rather interesting tidbit, saying that MDOT likely needs another $1.5 billion in funding just to fix state roads. And that doesn’t account for the needs of counties, cities and villages. On today’s show, we break down the particulars, including why that $1.2 billion roads package lawmakers passed back in 2015 won’t cut it. We also run down: GM’s planned layoffs of 1,300 salaried employees at the Warren Tech Center, coming on the same day the automaker reported earning $8.1 billion for 2018 A Detroit police commander who retired after being charged with impaired driving and possessing a firearm while under the influence Former Clinton Township Trustee Dean Reynolds, who was sentenced to 17 years in a federal prison in a wide-ranging Macomb County corruption scandal, detailed by The Detroit News Former U.S. Rep.

"I'm glad they believe that Lindsey Graham is not their friend," Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox New's Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday, "It would bother me a lot if they did. So, if I were president of the United States and these people showed sympathy toward me and my agenda, it would bother me." Senator Graham condemned the neo-Nazi, KKK and alt-right groups rallying in Charlottesville over the weekend and President Trump for refusing to explicitly denounce these white supremacist groups. The president ended up condemning the groups today, but the damage was done. Michael Steele and Rick Ungar wonder how the GOP will react to this seminal moment in the face of the president's lack of moral leadership. Former Congressman John Dingell, a World War II veteran and the longest-serving member of Congress in U.S. history, discusses the importance of a president's character.
