The U.S. House of Representatives is currently considering newly
proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act which would greatly weaken
it.  The argument being used is that it must not be working because so
far the total of species which have been removed from the endangered
and then lesser threatened species listing is 10.  This change is being
pushed by the same representatives who regularly vote against funding
for the needed habitat protection and other programs which are needed to
give species a chance to bounce back.
 
Please, let your representative know that you do not want the Endangered
Species Act which protects BFFs and other species that are at risk to be
itself endangered.
