] The Wisconsin Legislature is currently circulating a joint
] resolution, asking Congress to pass legislation giving a state the
] right to limit the importing of solid waste from outside of the
] state. ...

I would hope that any legislation would also allow a state to restrict
_export_ of solid waste. Raising landfill fees across a state could
help recycling, but in many cases might just drive it outside the state,
without such a provision.
