JL,

Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., the ranking Democrat on the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, called the $9.1 million cut "unacceptable."
"We already have a tremendous backlog in the development of recovery programs," Bingaman said in a statement. "The Fish and Wildlife Service should be working its way out of the backlog, not digging a deeper hole."
Suckling said a 1990 report by the Department of Interior Inspector General found that the Fish and Wildlife Service needed $144 million to address the endangered species backlog.
