Two of the most endangered whale populations need your help.

TAKE ACTION: New legislation threatens the survival of the
Rice’s whale and North Atlantic right whale, and undermines our
bedrock conservation laws.

Right now, our lawmakers are considering a slew of bills that
would push critically endangered whales closer to the brink of
extinction. Anti-environment members of Congress are trying to
get these bills passed any way they can. Tell Congress: Reject
these short-sighted attacks on America’s endangered whales!

Dear NRDC Action Fund
Activist,

Two of America's most endangered whale populations, Rice's whales
and North Atlantic right whales, could disappear forever if
anti-environment members of Congress — including allies of Big
Oil — keep up their shameless attacks on wildlife.

Here are just a few of the legislative
attacks on whales that Congress is considering right now:
* Preventing the administration from
excluding Rice's whale habitat from new oil and gas leases — or
indeed from adopting any new measures to spare Rice's whales from
the industry's harmful activities
* Prohibiting the improvement of a vessel speed rule that helps
protect endangered North Atlantic right whales from being killed
by ship collisions
* Undermining the Endangered Species Act by giving the oil and
gas industry unprecedented special access to decision-making

Enough is enough — tell Congress to strongly
oppose any and all bills attacking our most endangered whales. ( [link removed] )

Only about 50 critically endangered Rice’s whales
remain. More than 20 percent of the population was lost in the
Deepwater Horizon disaster 13 years ago, and their narrow strip
of habitat in the Gulf of Mexico is STILL under threat from
dirty, dangerous offshore oil drilling — and just recently, a
pipeline spilled another 1.1 million gallons of oil into the
Gulf, which spread into the whales' habitat.

North Atlantic right whales aren’t doing much
better. Fewer than 340 remain in their home along the Atlantic
coast, and since calving mothers and their calves tend to rest
just beneath the surface, they are at dire risk from ship
strikes.

And not only is Congress introducing standalone bills to rescind
whale protections and give away whale habitat to the fossil fuel
giants, they’re including poisonous provisions attacking whales
in must-pass spending bills to give them a better chance at
becoming law. This is an all-out assault on whales happening
right now in Congress — and it’s time to fight back.

Tell Congress to reject these
attacks on two of the most endangered whales in our oceans and
stop the blatant giveaways to the oil and gas industry. ( [link removed] )

When one attack fails, extremists in Congress try
to sneak their dangerous, unpopular giveaways into another bill,
then another, then another. We must send a resounding message to
Congress: NO big polluter giveaways! PROTECT critically
endangered whales ( [link removed] ).

Thank you for speaking up today — for the sake of whale survival.

Sincerely,

Michael Jasny
