"Asian carp is the single greatest threat to Tennessee's lake and river systems. If ignored Asian carp will destroy our recreation, sporting, and tourism industries. Throughout this year, I fought to ensure Congress recognized this threat, and today, I am pleased to see this funding pass through the House and give West Tennessee the much-needed support to help eradicate this invasive species. I would also like to thank Senator Alexander for his hard work to ensure this important Asian carp funding was included in the package," said Rep. David Kustoff. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-27T23:45:33Z |
