@8VWB93R3yrs3Y
Yes, and pursue those directly responsible for damage to lakes and rivers
@8VNNN4N3yrs3Y
No, but they should spend some amount of money, not a billion.
@8VL243N3yrs3Y
They should spend some money to restore and protect large lakes and rivers but not $1 billion dollars
@8VKZR5C3yrs3Y
Less money but still work to restore the environment.
@8VKY2543yrs3Y
I am satisfied with the state they are in
@8VKXPK33yrs3Y
I think I would use less of our money
@8VK37GC3yrs3Y
This question is too broad and open ended
@9SLJBJV4wks4W
Yes, , but the price is too high for government funding. Have those responsible for the damage pay as well to exceed the $1 billion
