Need to Put Header/Logo In IN THIS ISSUE: EDITOR’S NOTE EDITOR’S CHOICE NATIONAL NEWS STATE NEWS WETLAND SCIENCE Dear Wetlanders, NEWS Last week the Association of State Wetland Managers (ASWM) held its annual State/Tribal/Federal Coordination meeting at the National Conservation Training Center outside of Shepherdstown, W.V. It was a RESOURCES & really great meeting this year and a much needed opportunity for wetland managers, scientists, regulators, PUBLICATIONS policy makers and others to congregate, share knowledge, and offer emotional support in a challenging political climate. POTPOURRI It’s always a small meeting with only about 100 +/- folks who attend each year and it’s designed to provide for CALENDAR OF open and honest discussions about ways to improve wetland science, policy and permitting activities. You can imagine our surprise on the morning of Day 2 to see a news story with direct quotes from some of the meeting EVENTS presentations in E&E News. Those of us who work in the field of wetland science and policy often perceive that wetlands don’t get nearly enough attention for all the wonderful benefits that they provide. Perhaps we INDEX were wrong…. Regardless, the meeting was very inspirational due to all the presentations showing incredibly innovative approaches to wetland science, policy and management. With all the negative news out there, I’d like to keep To view the April the happy buzz going and highlight some inspiring news from around the nation. For example, in State News, issue of Wetland there is a story about how ospreys are making a comeback in Delaware. In Clermont, Florida, the $9.5M Breaking News as Victory Pointe Wetland Park has just received the green light for funding from the City Council and it sounds well as past issues like a really innovative integrated project that provides solutions for stormwater, recreation, education and on our website, economic development. please click here. In Iowa, a recent poll showed that numerous soil and water conservation best management practices are being widely used by Iowa farmers and more are being considered. That’s good news for Midwestern Visit ASWM online ecosystems, not to mention the Gulf of Mexico. Also in the Midwest, the Michigan Municipal Wetland Alliance to read weekly news (MMWA) is developing a wetlands mitigation bank system using Department of Natural Resources (DNR) updates between property as bank sites. The goal for this state and local government partnership is to make wetlands mitigation issues. cheaper for local governments. In fact you’ll find a few stories in the State News section which highlight a variety of stormwater projects that are using constructed wetlands to reach their TMDL goals. Although there Please send is a healthy debate regarding the efficacy of constructed wetlands, these efforts are promising for urban areas. comments and news In Wetland Science News, you’ll find a story about a recent study performed by the University of Exeter which stories to found that phytoplankton can rapidly adapt to global warming. That’s good news for aquatic life. And in the [email protected]. Resources & Publications section you’ll find out about the Delaware Department of Natural Resources’ new outreach effort which includes an online tool that residents can use to locate wetlands on their property. Thank you for your continued interest. There truly is an amazing amount of good work being done around the country. Please feel free to share your successes with ASWM so that we can share them with our members and friends. All photos by Happy Spring! Jeanne Christie, ASWM Marla J. Stelk, Editor, Wetland Breaking News EPA to use 2 rulemakings to repeal and replace WOTUS By Ariel Wittenberg – E&E News – April 12, 2017 U.S. EPA plans to repeal and replace the Clean Water Rule with two separate rulemaking processes, an EPA official told the Association of State Wetland Managers yesterday. In a talk to the association's annual winter meeting, Mindy Eisenberg, acting director of the EPA wetlands division, said that the agency plans to first rescind the Obama administration's contentious regulation and then work on a new definition for "waters of the United States," according to multiple people who attended the meeting. "This is an attempt to repeal and replace, but in this case the EPA has decided that it can repeal the regulation now and replace it later," said Stephen Samuels, a former Department of Justice attorney who spoke to the association's meeting right before Eisenberg did.

By Sarah Kaplan – The Washington Post – April 23, 2017 Just hours after the Washington March for Science dispersed, organizers sent an email to demonstrators with the subject line, “What's next?” “Our movement is just starting,” the message read. It went on to urge marchers to take part in a “week of action,” a set of coordinated activities that range from signing an environmental voting pledge to participating in a citizen science project. They will provide postcards for participants to send to their political leaders and a calendar of events recommended by the march's partner groups. The march website was also overhauled Saturday night to include a new page on the organization's vision for the future. For full story, click here. Defying Trump, Supreme Court will continue with WOTUS case By Robert Walton – Utility DIVE – April 5, 2017 As the fight over President Trump's Supreme Court nominee heads for a Senate showdown later this week, the high court delivered a setback to the administration's environmental plans. On Tuesday, the court denied a motion to hold the briefing schedule in abeyance. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed to take the WOTUS case last year, but the National Association of Manufacturers has argued it belongs in District court. The WOTUS rule was an attempt to clarify which smaller waterways and wetlands should be regulated under the Clean Water Act because they feed into larger bodies already covered by the law. Previously, the definition had been left to state authorities to determine. For full story, click here. Trump Administration Proposes Additional Budget Cuts at U.S. EPA By Andrea Wortzel and Kevin G. Desharnais – Environmental Law & Policy Monitor – March 30, 2017 Continuing its call for reduced spending at U.S. EPA, the Trump administration proposed additional budget cuts at the agency for the remaining 6 months of fiscal year 2017. The administration proposal calls for reductions in spending at EPA totaling $247 million. For full story, click here. Battle over landmark law already raging out of public eye By Corbin Hiar – E&E News – April 17, 2017 With most of Washington focused on fights over government funding, Obamacare and Russian meddling, a few congressional aides and outside advocates are quietly preparing for what could be an epic battle over the Endangered Species Act. The contentious conservation law was protected by President Obama's veto from Republican efforts to ease restrictions on farmers, energy companies and developers. But with Republicans now controlling Capitol Hill and the White House for the first time since 2004, the endangered species law — which hasn't been significantly updated since 1988 — appears vulnerable.

EPA emerges as major target after Trump solicits policy advice from industry By Juliet Eilperin – The Washington Post – April 16, 2017 Just days after taking office, President Trump invited American manufacturers to recommend ways the government could cut regulations and make it easier for companies to get their projects approved. Industry leaders responded with scores of suggestions that paint the clearest picture yet of the dramatic steps that Trump officials are likely to take in overhauling federal policies, especially those designed to advance environmental protection and safeguard worker rights.

Public is asked to help pick rules for chopping block By Arianna Skibell, E&E News – Governors’ Biofuels Coalition – April 13, 2017 U.S. EPA’s regulatory task force is looking for suggestions on what rules should be repealed, replaced or modified. A Federal Register notice posted yesterday asks the agency’s program offices to collect public comments on — among other things — rules that eliminate jobs, are outdated or ineffective, impose costs that outweigh benefits, or implement now-repealed executive orders.

Trump administration halts Obama-era rule aimed at curbing toxic wastewater from coal plants By Brady Dennis – The Washington Post – April 13, 2017 The Trump administration has hit the pause button on an Obama-era regulation aimed at limiting the dumping of toxic metals such as arsenic and mercury by the nation’s power plants into public waterways. “I have decided that it is appropriate and in the public interest to reconsider the rule,” Scott Pruitt, head of the Environmental Protection Agency, wrote this week in a letter to groups that had petitioned the agency to revisit the rule, which was finalized in 2015.

  • Understanding Persistence in the Resistance Authors: Dana R
    Understanding Persistence in the Resistance Authors: Dana R. Fisher1 and Lorien Jasny2 Abstract Since Donald Trump’s Inauguration, large-scale protest events have taken place around the US, with many of the biggest events being held in Washington, DC. The streets of the nation’s capital have been flooded with people marching about a diversity of progressive issues including women’s rights, climate change, and gun violence. Although research has found that these events have mobilized a high proportion of repeat participants who come out again-and-again, limited research has focused on understanding differential participation in protest, especially during one cycle of contention. This paper, accordingly, explores the patterns among the protest participants to understand differential participation and what explains persistence in the Resistance. In it, we analyze a unique dataset collected from surveys conducted with a random sample of protest participant at the largest protest events in Washington, DC since the inauguration of Donald Trump. Our findings provide insights into repeat protesters during this cycle of contention. The paper concludes by discussion how our findings contribute to the research on differential participation and persistence.

Allard August 2020 Accepted by: R. Andrew Hurley, Committee Chair Chad Navis Gregory Pickett Adam L. Warber ABSTRACT How do politics influence the geographic distribution of science funding? I investigate this question in the context of presidential politics. Science policy scholars endeavor to develop a systems-level understanding—using empirical data and quantitative analysis—of how governments make decisions about science. In the United States, one of the most important decisions that governments make is the allocation of federal funding from agencies such as the National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation to researchers and universities. Science policy scholars typically explain the distribution of science funding through scientists’ or universities’ merit. I challenge these explanations’ assumption that presidential politics does not play a role.

  • How the March for Science Splits Researchers Nature Asked Members of the Scientific Community Whether Or Not They Plan to March on 22 April — and Why
    NATURE | NEWS How the March for Science splits researchers Nature asked members of the scientific community whether or not they plan to march on 22 April — and why. Erin Ross 18 April 2017 Clarified: 19 April 2017 Calls from US President Donald Trump to roll back environmental regulations and slash funding for health, environmental and research agencies have raised alarm in the scientific community. Earlier this year, a commenter on the social-media website Reddit made an off- hand remark about the need for scientists to march on Washington DC. That thread has since grown into an international movement. The March for Science now includes more than 500 events — including marches, rallies and teach-ins — planned for locations around the world. But support for the march, set to occur on 22 April, has been far from unanimous. Some, who think that science should remain non- partisan, are concerned that the movement will politicize it. Others have voiced concerns about diversity and inclusiveness. Nature spoke with people around the world about the reasons they will or won’t attend a March for Science event. The answers below have been edited for length and clarity. Kellie Dean is a lecturer at University College Cork in Ireland, specializing in biochemistry and cell and molecular biology. “I am going so I can stand up for evidence-based policies and the scientific method. I also support robust funding of science and transparent reporting of scientific results. The current wave of ‘anti-science’ rhetoric goes against everything that I am trying to do as a scientist and an educator.

  • The Trump Resistance's
    THE TRUMP RESISTANCE’S REPERTOIRE OF CONTENTION The Trump Resistance’s Rep- ertoire of Contention and its Practice of Civil Disobedience (2016-2018) Charlotte Thomas-Hébert Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne European Center for Sociology and Political Science (CESSP) France Abstract: The Resistance, formed in opposition to Donald Trump, has seen progressive groups ally in marches and ral- lies all over the United States. Yet one of its most striking fea- tures is that there have been few acts of civil disobedience. Using the tools of social movement studies and political soci- ology as well as ethnographic data, this paper investigates why breaking the law has not been a more popular form of nonvio- lent direct action, and why activists seemed to favor permitted marches at a time when civil disobedience had become if not le- gitimate, at least increasingly accepted as a democratic practice. 1 SOCIETY OF AMERICANISTS REVIEW he election of Barack Obama as well as the Great Reces- sion of 2008 marked a subsequent revival of protest poli- Ttics in the United States, with movements ranging from campaigns for better living wages such as Fight for $15, Black Lives Matter actions against police brutality and institutional racism and strikes in the public sector (Wisconsin in 2011, the Chicago teach- ers’ strike of 2012). Additional protest politics movements include the “Nonviolent Moral Fusion Direct Actions” of the Moral Mon- days in the South in 2013 and Occupy in 2011, that held public space in opposition to “corporate greed” and the financialization of the economy. If these movements have adopted different strategies and repertoires of contention, they have stayed clear of electoral politics and have criticized the legitimacy of the American political system.

  • Sarah Kendzior: That Jared and Ivanka's Activity in Office
    Gaslit Nation Transcript 22 April 2020 “Blood Money Brigade” Sarah Kendzior: That Jared and Ivanka's activity in office has abated enemies of America, like Russia, or states rife with human rights violations, like Saudi Arabia, has proven irrelevant to media personalities seeking to normalize them. After all, many of these media personalities are themselves the sons and daughters of the rich and powerful. The new American economy runs on purchased merit, and now we bear the consequences on a national security level. Adult children of authoritarian leaders are useful in multiple ways. First, they tend to be trustworthy confidantes in regimes rife with paranoia, as corrupt authoritarian states are. Sarah Kendzior: Second, they're excellent vessels for laundering money. Creating enough distance, the assets stolen from the state are harder to track. Third, they tend to have a warmer public profile which offsets the brutality of the dictator by distracting the population with pictures of their happy families or glamorous lifestyle. Fourth, a dynastic kleptocracy is the most reliable way to keep assets stolen from the state in the family. It therefore falls upon the authoritarian ruler to legitimize his offspring as successors should he be forced to leave office. Sarah Kendzior: For 40 years, Trump hobnobbed with elites from media, business, politics, and entertainment, and then with their offspring, as those professions became dominated by nepotism. In 2016, when Trump's "grab them by the pussy" Access Hollywood outtakes were released, America was introduced to what I have called the Billy Bush Principle: For every asshole, there is an equal and opposite asshole.

  • When Do Peaceful Protesters Support Political Violence in the United States?
    When do peaceful protesters support political violence in the United States? Michael T. Heaney University of Glasgow [email protected] Paper presented at the 116th Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, held in San Francisco, California, and virtually, September 10‐13, 2020. Abstract: Political violence has become an increasingly salient element surrounding peaceful protests in the United States in recent years. This study examines the attitudes of peaceful protesters towards various conceptions of political violence. Drawing on surveys of participants at major protest events in Washington, DC in 2017 and 2018, it shows that protesters are more inclined to endorse the use of violence for political purposes when they are less satisfied with the way that democracy works in the United States. They are also more likely to support violence when they are identified with the left side the ideological spectrum than when they are identified with the right side of the spectrum. These views are reversed when protesters themselves are the target of violence. In this instance, the interaction of democratic satisfaction and ideology helps to explain attitudinal variations. Keywords: Political violence, protest, social movements, satisfaction with democracy, ideology, United States Acknowledgments: This study was supported by funding from the National Institute for Civil Discourse and, at the University of Michigan, the Institute for Research on Women and Gender, the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program, the National Center for Institutional Diversity, and the Organizational Studies Program. For helpful suggestions, thanks are owed to Chris Carman, Vince Hutchings, and seminar participants from the Glasgow Quantitative Methods Group. This research would not have been possible without the involvement of the many research assistants, surveyors, and survey respondents that are too numerous to be named individually.
