Lowey Chairman, Appropriations Committee Ranking Member, Appropriations Committee U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives 2306 Rayburn House Office Building 2365 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515-3011 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Ken Calvert The Honorable Betty McCollum Chairman, Subcommittee on Interior, Ranking Member, Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Environment, and Related Agencies U.S. House Appropriations Committee U.S. House Appropriations Committee 2205 Rayburn House Office Building 2256 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Chairmen Frelinghuysen and Calvert and Ranking Members Lowey and McCollum, As members of the Great Lakes Legislative Caucus (GLLC), we are writing to express our strong support for the federal Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI). The GLLC is the only nonpartisan, binational organization of state and provincial legislators from the eight states and two Canadian provinces that share the Great Lakes: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Ontario, Pennsylvania, Québec, and Wisconsin. As legislators from the Great Lakes states, we know firsthand the ecological and economic significance of the Great Lakes to our region and our nation. The lakes contain 84 percent of the surface fresh water in North America and provide drinking water to nearly 40 million people in the U.S. and Canada. Over 1.5 million jobs are directly connected to the lakes, generating an estimated $62 billion annually in wages in industries such as manufacturing, tourism, and shipping. Our Great Lakes are both a natural wonder and an economic engine that deserve our unwavering support. -

Animal Law News
Vol. 1 Issue 1 Spring 2016 Published by the Ohio State Bar Association Animal Law Committee Animal Law News An elephant’s journey: How the laws and regulations affecting zoos have evolved leading to the modern zoo If we look back 60 years, which is the average lifespan of an African Elephant, we can witness the significant changes which have occurred in the approach to animal welfare at zoos. There are numerous regulations with which zoos must comply; however, more importantly, rigorous industry accreditation standards have been birthed, driving many zoos in a “race to the top” for excellence in animal care. Our country’s first approach to regulating zoos focused on the control of disease. From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, the Animal Quarantine Laws1 and the Lacey Act2 empowered the president and the Department of the Interior, respectively, to regulate the importation of animals that would threaten domestic animals or humans from disease or other harmful effects.

Accountable Ohio by Dr. Mark Redding 1. Reduce Risk - Make risk reduction our State goal and focus on risk reduction for individual and family well-being. 2. Work as a Team - The comprehensive reduction of risk is the most evidence-based strategy for improving infant mortality and all other health, social and economic outcomes. Remove the silos standing between agencies, research organizations, community initiatives, and policy development in a focused State effort to accountably identify and address risk within populations most at-risk. 3. Require Evidence Based Coordination and Completion of Risk Reduction. Use all available evidence-based and promising practice models of both care coordination and direct service intervention across health, social, and behavioral health services, to assure that risks are identified and effectively addressed. Use technology and centralized data collection, in cooperation with government and community-based research teams, to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of risk reduction while reducing cost. -
