Legislative Efforts

 

 

Above: photos from the 2006 MASWCD Legislative Briefing & Day at the Capitol, held March 20-21.  The first two photos are audience members listening to speakers during the briefing on March 20.  The third photo is Stearns SWCD Manager Dennis Fuchs and MASWCD Executive Director LeAnn Buck testifying on the Clean Water Legacy Initiative before the Minnesota House of Representatives Agriculture, Environment and Natural Resources Finance Committee on March 21.

 

MASWCD diligently pursues legislative efforts at the state and federal level that will positively impact Minnesota's Soil and Water Conservation Districts.  Member SWCDs receive legislative updates throughout the year and are asked to help keep their legislators informed of their local conservation efforts.
