News Release: Tiny beetles that munch on saltcedar leaves, shoots and twig bark are helping stop the spread of this rugged, aggressive weed. Also known as tamarisk, saltcedar was brought into the United States in the 1800s to help control erosion.

News Release: WASHINGTON - Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Committee on Finance, and Sen. Max Baucus, ranking member, have thanked President Bush for his direct involvement in encouraging Japan to lift its ban on U.S. beef exports and encouraged his continued involvement.
