Thanks for the ping; I’ll alert the Troops!
When I managed a Garden Center, we were very aware of this - and stopped selling certain things; Barberry and Honeysuckle immediately come to mind.
It was a constant ‘education process’ to explain to customers why we weren’t selling some items, anymore.
Every year we’d get a current list from our local DNR as to what was going on. It wasn’t a LOT of plants; not as extensive as the list you posted, but Wisconsin is mainly Zone 4 & 3, with a smattering of Zone 5 - and a lot of ‘invasives’ can’t make it through a Wisconsin Winter, anyhow.
I agree that some of the invasive/imported BIRDS are a bigger problem than plant material. But, what do I know? I’m just your average uneducated RUBE in the eyes of Mother Government, who always knows best. *Rolleyes* ;)
Can’t remember the name now, but there is a huge leaf plant that is invading areas and is highly toxic causing bug problems if touched. MayBe “Hog Weed”? It was a long time ago I read about it.
I can understand how house sparrows might have looked cute without people realizing that they take over nesting sites, or that in the days before bird feeders, not knowing that they would compete with our own native, colorful feeder squatters (American Goldfinches, I’m looking at you, literally).
But starlings? Who thought those thug-birds were a good idea, ever? So many obvious, obnoxious behaviors. Noisy, aggressive, no manners. These bird feeder looters even brawl en masse in a bird bath.
Locusts of the avian world. It had to have been a conspiracy.
At least where I’m at now I haven’t seen any starlings or house sparrows. They prefer the properties in town.
Yet bluebirds... oh and here they are on their daily visit. So patient and polite! Happy to share, too. They even scootch over on a suet feeder to make room for their companions who are awaiting their turns.

How about that oriental bittersweet... ugh. We keep an eye out. A 3” seedling will be anchored in like an oak tree.
