A big thank you to our friends of wildlife who sent messages to members of Congress, urging them to step up for wildlife in crisis! With your help, earlier this month we delivered wildlife champions eagle plushies with cards signed by more than 23,000 supporters to every sitting member of the House of Representatives. And now, because of people like you, we have almost 100 members of Congress supporting the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act—the solution we need to help struggling species from sea turtles living along our coasts, to moose facing an uncertain future to monarch butterflies in desperate need of habitat along their migration route.
Rather than waiting until species are on the brink of extinction, the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act would direct significant resources to the proactive, collaborative conservation of more than 12,000 species that states have identified as priorities for action. What a great win for wildlife and all of us who care about saving our natural world. I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer and feel good about all that you do for wildlife!
