I don't get why this bill is making a whole week about bird watching. It seems like a waste of time and resources. I don't see how this is going to benefit anyone. It's just confusing and unnecessary.

This bill is a waste of time and money. It won't do nothing for us. It's just a bunch of nonsense. I don't see how this is gonna help anyone. It's just a bunch of politicians wasting our tax dollars. Short term, it won't make a difference to me at all.
