Hi John,
The Trump administration just gutted the Endangered Species Act.
The Act is the foundation for the work we do to prevent extinction. This could be a death blow to species on the brink.
The Center for Biological Diversity will fight this reckless move at every turn.
Please make an urgent gift now to the Endangered Species Act Protection Fund to help us stop this dangerous assault on the wild.
Habitat destruction is the number-one cause of extinction.
Florida panthers are being boxed in by sprawling development. Northern spotted owls are losing the old-growth forests they depend on. Atlantic salmon are struggling to survive as their rivers are degraded.
The Act has long safeguarded forests, rivers, wetlands, deserts, and other wild places where threatened wildlife can feed, breed, migrate, and recover.
Now Trump has thrown that protection away.
This opens the door to more logging, mining, oil and gas drilling, and other destructive projects in habitat endangered species can't live without.
The Center is preparing to challenge this dangerous rollback and defend the Act in court, as we've done every time politicians have tried to weaken our nation's most important wildlife protection law.
We refuse to stand by while this administration dismantles the safeguards that have protected wildlife for generations.
Because threats to wildlife and public lands are ongoing, we need you for the long haul. Please start a monthly donation to sustain our defense.
For the wild,
