President Trump is using the pandemic to bulldoze the laws protecting our country’s environment and wildlife.
Late last week, President Trump signed an executive order that would allow certain federal projects – including pipelines, highways, oil drilling and mining – to go forward without the legally necessary environmental reviews that have been required for decades.
The integrity of our bedrock wildlife protections, including the Endangered Species Act, is at stake. Defenders of Wildlife is gearing up to fight back!
We need your help to stop this outrageous blitz attack. Please make your emergency gift to fight for the nation’s wildlife and wild places!
This is a heartless escalation of Trump’s greed-driven attack on animals already in serious danger. More than 100 critical environmental policies and regulations that protect our air, water, wildlife and people have been weakened or repealed by the Trump administration.
This administration’s agenda for wildlife: Drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, stripping gray wolves of federal ESA protections, opening national park lands to the barbaric killing of bears and wolves, and gutting the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
And now, they’re taking the gloves off. If they succeed, the wildlife we love will face an all-out war on their homes and lives.
Enough is enough. Defend vulnerable animals and habitat from this vicious attack by Trump’s anti-wildlife administration with your urgent gift!
This executive order comes as more species than ever before face the deadly threat of permanent extinction. We can’t let this administration take the easy way out and sacrifice our natural legacy for short-term gains.
When you pitch in today to Defenders of Wildlife, you’re taking an active role in protecting America’s wildlife and the wild places on which they depend. You’re joining scientists, litigators and a growing cadre of caring people like you in saying ‘hell no!’ to over three years of unprecedented loss and destruction.
