An amendment offered by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) erases language that protects national parks from being sold. It’s expected to be voted on WITHIN THE WEEK. Call your senators now and tell them to vote NO on Mike Lee’s despicable amendment.

Cutting close to 200 California DFW staff while the agency is underfunded and understaffed would be a short-sighted move. With nationwide staff reductions making it harder to protect wildlife as it is, we urge #caleg and @governor.ca.gov‬ to reinstate these positions in the final state budget!

Black text over image with quotation marks and brackets on either side reads "The governor's proposal undoes nearly a decade of progress and leaves the management of more than 600 declining species in limbo." with "600 declining species" in bold and "Pamela Flick, Defenders of Wildlife California Program Director" below it.
