The Census Bureau came out with its predictions on U.S. population this month.  In response, Federal Departments including the Departments of Interior and Agriculture released reports on how this growth will affect our country’s natural resources including open space and water supply.  The U.S. will add over 100 million people by 2050 due to mass immigration policies.   Also to be expected by 2050 are severe water shortages and major losses of forests and open space.  When will America realize that population stabilization is the answer to our sustainability dilemma?

Today marks the start of the month-long recess in Congress.  Things may be slowing down here in Washington, but around the country some lawmakers have a busy few weeks planned.  August is prime time for town hall meetings.  Everyday I send out alerts for town halls, mobile office hours, and campaign events.  Little may be going on in Washington, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make an impact this month.
