Shedding
light on Washington's Obfus-Gate Scandal
The
US Department of Interior was rocked with scandal following the
revelation that Julie MacDonald, Assistant Secretary of the
Interior, and director of the Endangered Species Program, had been
rewriting regulations, arbitrarily deciding which species to list,
perhaps made decisions that could protect the value of her
personal property, and perhaps most insidious of all, set back the
efforts of generations of Americans who established the Endangered
Species Act to proactively address the challenges facing hundreds
of endangered species.
We
hear from Noah Greenwald who has had a dog in this fight for a
long time.
