Action
Alert!
August
15, 2008 the Department of the Interior (DOI)
proposed
changes that will significantly weaken the
Endangered
Species Act.
During
the past eight years there have been several
attempts
to diminish the ability of the Act to protect species
nearing
the brink of extinction.
Each
of those attempts has been thwarted by public outcry.
We
need to make our voices heard again! We have succeeded
in
obtaining additional time to submit comments, comments
are
now
due by October 14, 2008.
Please
visit one of the following websites as soon as possible
for
additional information and to submit an electronic comment
letter
to your elected officials and
to Dirk Kempthorne Secretary of the DOI:
Center
for Biological Diversity
National
Wildlife Federation
The
Endangered Species Coalition
We
extend a heartfelt "Thanks!" to Mondy Lariz for
all of his assistance in getting our website up and running
again. "Thanks Mondy!"
