It concludes that, although these investments are more likely to occur than the public choice scholarship suggests, they face challenges that the public choice claim masks.
In this Article, we explore the problem of beneficial insect population decline and evaluate the utility of existing federal law to reverse the trend. We offer solutions that can be implemented by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under existing federal laws without the need for additional congressional action.
