I noted that as well. I hate using reign in that context. It's definitely
"rein" as in horse.

Dear
Ms. Phillips,
Thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
contact
my
office
to
share
your
concerns
about
the
Migratory
Bird
Treaty
Act.
Your
opinion
is
important
to
me,
and
I
appreciate
the
time
you
took
to
share
your
thoughts.
The
preservation
of
wildlife
and
the
environment
is
very
important
to
me.
I
believe
we
as
elected
officials
have
the
responsibility
of
enacting
legislation
that
protects
our
abundant
natural
resources
for
future
generations
to
enjoy.
While
it
is
necessary
that
we
reign
in
spending
and
work
to
balance
the
budget,
we
must
make
sure
that
this
is
not
done
to
the
detriment
of
our
natural
resources.
As
we
go
through
the
appropriations
process,
I
will
certainly
take
into
consideration
your
concerns
about
our
natural
resources
and
programs
that
encourage
ecosystem
restoration.
Thank
you
again
for
your
letter.
I
hope
you
will
continue
to
share
your
thoughts
with
me.
Sincerely,
Bob
Corker
United
States
Senator
Lyda Phillips
Davidson County
