EnviroAction -- Stop Congress from Plowing Over Wildlife in the Final Farm

Bill

[for Americans]

 

 

TAKE ACTION -- Stop Congress From Plowing Over Wildlife Programs in the

Final Farm Bill!

 

As Congress works to finalize a new Farm Bill, funding for some of America's

most important private lands conservation programs is in serious jeopardy!

Farm Bill conservation programs currently provide $5 billion each year for

conservation on America's farms and ranches.

 

These programs produce fish and wildlife habitat on over 40 million acres of

land and help protect wetlands, native prairie, water quality and other

natural resources.

 

Help farmers get the funding they need to protect wildlife:

Polar Bears Need Your Help

 

Despite public and congressional pressure, on February 6, the Department of

Interior proceeded with the sale of oil and gas leases in important polar

bear habitat.

 

Please let the Interior Department know that it has a moral and legal duty

to protect this iconic species by immediately listing the polar bear as a

threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.
