Dear Chairperson Feinstein and Ranking Member Alexander:

As members of the Great Lakes delegation, we ask that you add language to the Energy and Water Appropriations bill for fiscal year 2015 (FY2015) so that the Army Corps of Engineers can continue to implement emergency measures to stop the spread of invasive species in the Great Lakes. Thank you for your past support of this request, and we hope you can again provide assistance this year…
