Tell Congress: Ban Shark Finning

Tell Congress: Ban Shark Finning

The Issue

The new Congress has hit the ground running, with the introduction of the Shark Conservation Act (HR 81). This bill would require that sharks caught in all U.S. waters be landed whole with their fins still attached. Please tell your Representative to help ensure fast passage of this important piece of legislation.
We've started 2009 off on the right foot with our Dr. Lark victory and the introduction of the Shark Conservation Act- and you made it happen. Please keep the momentum going by taking action today in support of the Shark Conservation Act.LINK:http://takeaction.oceana.org/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=25188
