Yes, Cruz and Kennedy being against this absolutely raises my eyebrow. I had a hard time finding details about the original bill, but their opposition and even opposition from some logging people has me thinking undoing the owl culling would also undo some accompanying restrictions on where they can log. I don’t trust them to do anything for their love of nature.

I think others’ love if owls is a manipulation tactic in this case, but it would be a positive for the owls most likely.
