Amendment Aims to Strip ESA Protection for Endangered Mexican Wolves


U.S. Senator Jeff Flake (R-AZ) introduced an amendment to the Senate Energy Bill (S. 2012) which, if passed and signed into law, would remove federal protections for the critically endangered Mexican gray wolf - a species already on the brink of extinction.
Sen. Flake’s amendment would direct U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to determine whether there are at least 100 wild wolves remaining in the recovery area, and if so, Mexican gray wolves will lose endangered species act protections permanently.
Please urge your senators to oppose any legislation that takes aim at critically endangered wildlife!
This is urgent, and we appreciate your consideration.
PLEASE TAKE ACTION TODAY.
