Save the Endangered Species Act! Oppose the Trump Extinction Plan

The Endangered Species Act is the most effective tool at fighting extinction. I am outraged that the Trump Administration has taken regulatory action to weaken it and am calling on my senators to pass legislation overriding this attack on conservation and wildlife.

Why is this important?

Donald Trump's Departments of Interior and Commerce have published drastic changes to the way they carry out the Endangered Species Act. Under these revisions, protecting endangered and threatened species and the wild places they rely upon will be much more difficult.

The Endangered Species Act is phenomenally successful. It has a 99 percent success rate at preventing the extinction of species in its care. But it only works if politicians stay out of the way.

Please add your name to tell the Senate to pass legislation instructing the Trump Administration to carry out the Endangered Species Act as written.
