Dear John,

The fossil fuel industry, construction firms, land developers, and other giant
corporations kill up to a billion birds each year. Take action now.

In December, the Trump Administration took steps to eliminate penalties when
polluters injure or kill migratory birds like the bald eagle in the course of
their operations. It rushed the rollback of protections, failing to allow the
public to comment.

President Biden has hit pause to seek public input, but we have less than two
weeks to stop this cruelty to birds.

Use your voice to protect migratory birds like bald eagles. Demand the Fish &
Wildlife Service stop Trump’s attack.

spilling enough crude oil to fill 125 Olympic sized swimming pools. Over 250,000
seabirds were killed.

It is estimated that more than a million birds died when BP’s Deepwater Horizon
drilling rig exploded off the coast of Louisiana.

Exxon and BP agreed to provide $100 million to in fines and to support
conservation of wetlands as part of their settlements. But if Trump’s rule change is not stopped, businesses and individuals will no
longer be prosecuted under the Migratory Bird Act for this type of horrific
incident.

Up to a billion migratory birds each year are electrocuted, poisoned, or killed
in collisions. Big Polluters need to face consequences when they harm migratory
birds. Can we count on you to protect them?

Take action to stop Trump’s brazen attack on the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

[[link removed]]Passed in 1918, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act is one of our oldest and most
important conservation laws. Now we need your help to protect it.

If Trump’s horrific rule change is adopted, that would change -- undoing over a
century of conservation efforts to protect birds.

We cannot allow Trump’s parting gift to the oil industry to go through without a
fight. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act protects over 1,000 bird species including
bald eagles, American flamingos, Atlantic puffin, and the Arctic loon. There’s
still time to preserve this conservation act, but the clock is ticking.

Act now to stop Trump's attempt to kill migrant birds without consequence.
