June 28, 2008, 11:31pm (report abuse)I agree the bill should pass, however amendments are needed. I'm confused on how they plan to keep track of what's legal and illegal timber. All timber should be legal but how can we track this?

September 26, 2008, 10:14pm (report abuse)I see this Bill as extremely harmful to the timber industry of the United States. The regulatory and compliance actions that will be needed by numerous companies within the United States to comply with this Bill would be counter productive.
