[[link removed]]John,

Rampant oil and gas development has been threatening pronghorn habitat for
years.

But today there is good news. President Joe Biden recently announced he is
pausing oil and gas leasing across the millions of acres of our public lands,
giving the Department of Interior time to evaluate the best ways to safeguard
wildlife habitat, expand access for all Americans and leave our public lands
better off than we found them.

This is where you come in, John: Tell your Senators and
Representative to join in and support this common-sense pause from the reckless
energy leasing of the past four years.

YES, STOP RECKLESS OIL & GAS LEASING NOW!

Pronghorn are fast, reaching speeds up to 60 miles per hour. They also travel
great distances. In order to survive, they must migrate between summer and
winter range to find food and for mating.

In recent years, these migration pathways have been threatened by unchecked
energy development.

We deserve a balanced approach on our public lands that prioritizes wildlife and
outdoor recreationists—not extractive industries. If you support this pause on
oil and gas leasing, urge your members of Congress to do the same.

Our public lands could—and should—be better managed to protect pronghorn and
other cherished wildlife.

Our current leasing system is broken. For example, lands that have virtually no
potential for finding oil and gas are being leased to energy companies, at the
ridiculously low price of $1.50 an acre. That land is then managed for oil and
gas development, even though it has little chance of it.

Congress will have an important role to play in fixing this failed system.
Several senators have already crafted legislation to correct some of these
issues, but we need more support both in and outside Congress.

John, please let your U.S. Senators and
Representative know that you want them to join you in supporting a balanced
approach to our public lands so wildlife such as pronghorn can thrive for
generations to come.

Thank you for lending your voice today for wildlife and the lands they call
home.
