Dear Audubon Supporter,
Americans went to the polls this week to vote for the future of our communities, our country, and our planet. The election of new leaders in Congress and across the country means new challenges and new opportunities.
As of today, we are still waiting for votes to be counted in several close contests. The outcome of these elections may determine the leadership in Congress, and I want to let you know that we will continue our important work no matter the outcome.
Birds are telling us that we are facing both a climate and a biodiversity crisis. Two-thirds of North American birds are at increasing risk of extinction as global temperatures rise. As sentinels for clean air and clean water, we know that when birds are in trouble, people are in trouble too.
Together, we will help protect birds and the places they need, today and tomorrow. We will fight for clean air and water for all. And we will advocate for stronger and more resilient communities that help reduce the effects of climate change.
Audubon will continue to do what Audubon does best: harness the power of our hemisphere-wide network and work with lawmakers across the political spectrum for equitable and impactful wins. Whatever the makeup of a new Congress, we will work strategically to achieve wins for birds and people.
There is much work to do in the year ahead. Thank you for being by Audubon’s side at this critical moment for birds. |
