Tell Congress to Defend the Endangered Species Act!

The Issue

The 2012 House Interior Appropriations Bill contains multiple legislative proposals that would represent the most sweeping attempt to weaken the Endangered Species Act in recent history. If passed, no new species could be protected, currently protected species could not receive habitat protections, the courts would be precluded from reviewing de-listing of wolves and the ability of the Act to prevent poisoning of wildlife would be crippled.
