Stella "Conservation is sometimes perceived as stopping everything cold, as holding whooping cranes in higher esteem than people. It is up to science to spread the understanding that the choice is not between wild places or people, it is between a rich or an impoverished existence for Man."

Our State Senator is Cecilia Tkaczyk and our Assembly member is Pete Lopez. Our US congressman is Chris Gibson. I will be reaching out to all of their offices.

Tonko is the congressman. As a congressional aide we had calls all the time from state level complaints. For a district I would start with the congressman and petition for a local contact. Good luck.
