Title: U. S. Congress urged to fully fund Resource Conservation and Development Program
Summary: Alabama urges the U.S. Congress to fully fund the Resource Conservation and Development Program in the 2011 budget and all future budgets to keep its local development and conservation work going.
What This Bill Does
This is a concurrent resolution by the Alabama Legislature urging Congress to provide full funding for the Resource Conservation and Development (RCD) Program in the 2011 fiscal year and future budgets. It notes that RCD Councils are locally led, volunteer groups that help meet local needs and support rural and urban development and natural resource conservation. It mentions that the 2011 federal budget proposed eliminating the RCD program and asks Alabama's Congressional Delegation to advocate for continued funding. It also directs that a copy of the resolution be sent to Alabama's Congressional Delegation for pressuring lawmakers.

Who It Affects
