National Wildlife Refuge System Invasive Species Strike Team Act of 2025
The House debated H.R. 4219, the National Wildlife Refuge System Invasive Species Strike Team Act of 2025, which would formally create a Fish and Wildlife Service program of teams that find and remove invasive plants and animals on national wildlife refuges. Representative Westerman, speaking for the bill, said invasive species damage habitat, harm native wildlife, and carry costs, and that teams in each region would respond quickly. Representative Hoyle also supported the bill, saying the teams work with nearby landowners to stop invasive species from spreading across property lines. Representative Case, who introduced the bill with Representative Moylan, said it would require progress reports to Congress and provide $15 million a year for the work. The debate was brief and members of both parties spoke in support.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
