Default halting pet trades and species introduction into us

i'm a layman in regard to how us of a is in taking approach to its effort to halt further encroachment of its native species by nonnative wildlife species. viable piranha population in florida everglades. starving everglade kites falling from sky due to rapidly falling applesnail population(only thing they'll feed on) being replaced by nondesirable nonnative snail species introduced by aquarists like you and i. howabout caloupa overtaking and smothering everything in california, yea they were introduced by aquarists too. sorry about this rambling rant but if us congress can kickstart some concrete actions we as casual aquarists might just benefit in the long run.
