Call your Congresser (beats congressperson) or Senator. I find that
their staffs are responsive and actually listen, especially when it is
something exotic and new to them like honeybees. You can explain the
problem and ask for their support for funding to help solve the problem.
Even nicer if you have the right bill number (thank you, Jim).
I then follow-up with a letter both thanking the staffer by name for
listening and give more detail about the problem.
