Budget Woes

Wally and Senator Feinstein are working together to help out some of the northern counties here in California.

Budgets could lose funds: "School officials like French and road maintenance workers are watching nervously to see if President Bush and federal lawmakers reinstate a bill that provides funding to road maintenance and schools in many rural counties in California, Oregon and Washington. The funds compensate for lost logging revenue after large portions of old-growth forests were closed to timber harvest when the Northern Spotted Owl was listed as a federally protected species in 1990."
