BESC Member Organizations Resources
BESC Member Organizations offer a variety of resources valuable to the biological community including:
- Policy News from ESA's Public Affairs Office is a bi-weekly electronic
publication of the Ecological Society of America which provides updates on
key environmental policy including proposed regulation changes. For a free
email subscription, please send the command "sub esanews {your first

- The American Institute of Biological Sciences' Public Policy Report is
distributed broadly by email every two weeks and provides an update on key
science policy including federal appropriations. Any interested party may
self-subscribe to receive these free reports by email. Go to www.aibs.org
and click on Public Policy News and Reports on the opening page, then follow
the text links to complete the subscription form.
- Each week, the AIBS Public Policy Office identifies items in the Federal
Register that have national or international implications for biological research
and education. These items are compiled and posted to the AIBS Federal Register
Resource website each Monday. The website also provides basic information
on the federal rulemaking process, tips for preparing and submitting comments
to federal agencies, and useful internet links for electronic submission of
comments. Visit AIBS Federal Register Resource at http://www.aibs.org/publicpolicy/index.html.
