BEATING
THE FOSSIL BILL
The AAPS has advised us that the so-called
"Paleontological Resources Preservation Act" (HR2974 and S2727) which
sought to regulate (read: "ban") fossil collecting and commerce in
the United States "died at the end of the congressional session."
This is great news for fossil collectors, but the bill could be reintroduced,
so we must be vigilant. The AAPS will continue
to monitor the situation, and they can use your support!
