Dear Audubon Advocate,
This is momentum. The Migratory Birds of the Americas Conservation Enhancements Act is bipartisan legislation that would increase on-the-ground conservation projects to help birds and the places they need—and it just passed a full vote in the U.S. House of Representatives!
Now our focus turns to the Senate, where we are urging swift passage of the companion bill there.
***TAKE ACTION***
Thank your U.S. Representative for supporting this critical legislation that strengthens conservation for migratory birds—and urge your Senators to advance the companion bill in the Senate: [link removed]
This legislation will support more bird conservation projects across the Western Hemisphere by making the Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Act (NMBCA) program more accessible to communities and partners, and by reauthorizing the program to help support consistent funding in the years ahead.
More than half of our nation's bird species migrate to Latin America and the Caribbean for wintering habitats, including orioles, warblers, shorebirds, and more. These neotropical migrants face a complex range of threats, including development, invasive species, and climate change.
***TAKE ACTION***
Thank your U.S. Representative for supporting the Migratory Birds of the Americas Conservation Enhancements Act (H.R. 4389 / S. 4022) and urge the Senate to pass the companion bill: [link removed]
Sincerely,
Marshall Johnson
