On Wednesday April 28th and Thursday April 29th Shavone Hasse, a Clean Water Network member from ICARE (Idaho Concerned Area Residents for the Environment), visited Washington, DC to lobby members of the Idaho congressional delegation on issues surrounding CAFOs (confined animal feeding operations) and the America's Commitment to Clean Water Act. She visited with Network staff members on Wednesday. On Thursday, she was joined by CWN's policy analyst Gordon Culver in lobbying congress.

The Network was thrilled to have a member from outside the area come visit DC and lobby their congressional representatives. It is important for Members of Congress to hear from people in their own districts about what is really happening on the ground. We welcome any member that visits DC to stop by our offices and utilize any materials or services we can provide.
