ISSUE: President Bush is in the midst of preparing his federal budget

for fiscal year 2008 and the levels he selects will frame the budget

debate in Congress next year.

 

Please ask your members of Congress to urge the president to propose

increased funding for international affairs, which includes

international conservation.

 

The 1.2 percent of all federal spending that our nation allocates for

international affairs reaps us huge rewards in terms of increased U.S.

and global security and sustainability.

 

Because of the changes currently taking place in Congress, this is a

critically important time to take action. Legislators will be facing

enormous budget pressures next year and they will have to make

difficult choices. Your voice is essential to ensure that the

international conservation budget isn't cut!
