Under the new directive, killing an endangered animal is entirely legal — so long as it wasn't "intentional." Without protection against our modern world, so many animals won’t stand a chance. So today we took legal action to challenge this directive and protect imperiled species.

We're taking the Trump admin. to court to stop it from allowing endangered species to be killed. In September, FWS director, Brian Nesvik, issued a directive attempting to strip imperiled wildlife of protections from activities that can harm or kill them. In the #ESA, this is known as "take."

As if that's not enough, the legislation also curtails the ability of individuals, nonprofits (including us) and communities to challenge fossil fuel projects by REQUIRING courts to tip the scales in favor of the fossil fuel industry — making it impossible to bring an environmental justice claim.

Under the guise of helping renewable energy, a new legislative package, cynically titled the "Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026," would give the fossil fuel industry massive long-term structural advantages and lock in thousands of fossil fuel projects.
