Abstract

Property rights activists are lobbying a receptive Congress hard to overturn the 1973 Endangered Species Act. That body in summer 1995 wrangled over the law's habitat protection provisions, which property owners say are costing them millions.

Next up is Slade Gorton's reauthorization bill, which would reverse that decision.
