CQ Weekly 24 Oct. 98 2905. CQ weekly is a paper that focuses on the actions of the US government. They call themselves 100 reporters and editors, focused solely on Congress, poll trends, members and upcoming Hill activity. The paper actually shuts down when the senate and house is at recess.

It uses examples from the Glen Canyon dam to help the argument, but still does not talk about any positive changes in the Colorado River ecosystem.
