U.S. Sens. Diane Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, both Democrats from California, have relaunched their effort to stop U.S. Representative Duncan Hunter from turning part of Channel Islands National Park into a military hunting preserve.
The legislative jockeying has been going on for months and was just renewed earlier this year when the senators introduced legislation -- the Channel Islands National Park Management Act -- to reject Rep. Hunter's efforts. Earlier this week during a hearing of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources parks subcommittee Senator Feinstein urged her colleagues to support that legislation.
For details on her efforts, read this story.
