Holcomb should veto wetlands-gutting bill
Adjectives flowed easily Monday from opponents of damaging legislation that would gut protections for Indiana wetlands.
Unprecedented. Harmful. Irresponsible. Short-sighted.
“(A) super-risky and unsustainable gamble,” Jill Hoffmann said.
Hoffmann is executive director of the White River Alliance, an advocacy group that works to protect water resources in the central portion of the state. Her organization is among more than 100 – including the local League of Women Voters chapter, the city of Angola and the Crooked Lake Association board in northeast Indiana – that signed on to a letter urging Gov. Eric Holcomb to veto Senate Bill 389.
