Ask the President to Stop the Slaughter of Fin Whales

The Issue

The fin whale is an endangered species that is in dire need of protection. IFAW is working hard to ensure the U.S. government takes action to protect them.

The Department of Interior is taking the necessary first step by certifying Iceland under the Pelly Amendment for its continued commercial killing of this endangered species. However, it is critical that the U.S. government receives your support during this time urging the President to report to congress by April 7th on the actions that will be taken against Iceland, while continuing to enforce the diplomatic measures issued under the 2011 Pelly certification by Commerce.

Please sign to send a personal note to President Barack Obama.
