Hi John,
It's barely been a week since Trump mauled the Endangered Species Act — and another species is already in need of life support. The latest target of Trump's extinction plan? A tiny, dog-sized endangered deer.
Florida Key deer are threatened by habitat destruction from climate change and rising sea levels, yet the Trump administration's actions will strip away their protection.
Now is the time to go all in. A generous champion of the wild recognized the severity of Trump's attacks on the Endangered Species Act and stepped in with a match. Every gift to the Center's Endangered Species Protection Act Fund will be doubled if you give now.
We won't let Trump and Bernhardt eviscerate the Endangered Species Act, taking down vulnerable plants and animals.
This is what our resistance is up against. Today it's the Florida Key deer under attack. Tomorrow another species will be in the crosshairs. Nothing will be spared by this administration's greed: From polar bears desperately searching for food as sea ice disappears around them to monarch butterflies killed off by pesticide use and coral reefs in warming oceans dying off at a terrifying rate.
But the Center will be there to resist at every step. This fight is personal for us. We've been battling right-wingers' attempts to destroy the Endangered Species Act for three decades, and we're not about to quit now.
We're going to court to stop the gutting of the Act. And we'll keep up the pace through countless legal battles, fights on Capitol Hill, and a mass mobilization of resistance on the ground.
Across the globe 1 million species are at risk of going extinct. But there's still hope. We need the Endangered Species Act, and each other, to rise up and win.
Please give a matched donation now to the Center's Endangered Species Act Protection Fund.
For the wild,
