National Defense Authorization Act For Fiscal Year 2013 May 18, 2012
Pete Stark, D-CA

In Honor Of The Achievements Of Florence Lariviere May 9, 2012
Pete Stark, D-CA

Without Florence, it is safe to say that thousands of acres of wetlands and salt ponds along the San Francisco Bay would have been destroyed and developed. The Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, in my Congressional District, is the result of her tireless commitment to preventing urban sprawl from taking over unspoiled natural area."
