[Pollinator] Opening statements at March 29 House Ag Subc

[Mace Vaughan]

Hello everyone,

The link below is to the actual statements given by the witnesses at 
the subcommittee hearing.  May Berenbaum's statement, in particular, 
stands out in that it both addresses CCD, as well as the need to 
include native bees (both managed and wild) in our crop-pollinator portfolio.

You can read the entire statements at:

Cheers,
Mace
