Invasive Species Act

The Invasive Species Act is a law aimed at preventing, controlling, and managing non-native species that are introduced into new environments, where they can cause harm to ecosystems, agriculture, or human health. It provides a framework for monitoring, regulating, and responding to invasive species threats, and promotes collaboration among agencies, scientists, and the public. The goal is to protect native plants and animals, preserve biodiversity, and minimize economic and ecological damage caused by invasive species.
