Opponents of Animal Disease Lab - NBAF - Gaining Steam

Opposition to the Department of Homeland Security's National Bio and Agro-Defense facility -- or NBAF (en-BAF) -- have been inspired since the White House cut funding for the project in next year’s budget.  Meanwhile, supporters are moving quickly to do damage control.  And, they're looking for alternative sources of funding.  In another report from our continuing series on NBAF, Harvest Public Media's Laura Ziegler reports that the controversial project remains in political limbo.

For more information on NBAF - and for other stories related to our Midwest, rural and ag reporting project - log on on to HarvestPublicMedia.org.
