| Dear Friend, |
| Over the last several years, your advocacy has been crucial in the fight to recover imperiled Columbia Basin salmon. Many things have changed since a historic agreement to recover salmon was signed in 2023, including the inauguration of President Trump, but we won’t give up progress. We will continue to work toward implementing that agreement and a tribal-state blueprint for salmon recovery, the Columbia Basin Restoration Initiative (CBRI). |
| A comment period is now open allowing the public to weigh in on the future of Northwest salmon. Tell the federal government that extinction is not an option. We need the government to develop a new federal plan in alignment with the CBRI that will recover healthy and abundant salmon across the Columbia Basin. |
| Earthjustice, on behalf of the conservation, fishing and renewable energy groups we represent, has fought in court for more than 30 years to protect threatened and endangered salmon in the Columbia Basin. During that time, three different federal district court judges declared six different federal dam management plans to be illegal. Each time those decisions were appealed, we won in court. And throughout it all, Earthjustice advocates like you have reached out to agencies and your elected officials to protect salmon in the Columbia Basin. We won't stop now. |
| The law repeatedly has landed squarely on the side of these fish and the communities that depend on a thriving salmon run. And now it’s time to fix the federal plan that can help save and restore them instead of dooming them to extinction. We need a plan that follows the CBRI and recovers salmon before it's too late. Send a letter to the Army Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation today. |
