Let Legislators Know You Support the ESA and Oppose Cuts in Funding for Imperiled Species The Issue:Proposed budget cuts and attacks on the Endangered Species Act (ESA) threaten manatees and other wildlife. The ESA is our nation’s most effective law in protecting wildlife and plants in danger of extinction. More than 99 percent of listed species have been saved from the brink of extinction, including the manatee. As Congress works to develop its budget for the coming fiscal year, let them know that you want to continue these protections for wildlife.There is still time to act! The proposed budget is just a starting point. Congress sets the final budget, and there has historically been strong bipartisan support for conservation programs, which remain immensely popular with the American public.

Message I support the ESA and oppose cuts in funding Dear [Decision Maker], * Personalize your message I am writing to ask you to support the Endangered Species Act and oppose any bill, rider or other policy proposal that weakens protections for endangered species and their habitats. Efforts to rewrite this law would prove disastrous for imperiled wildlife and should be strongly opposed. Instead, I urge you to seek full funding and comprehensive implementation of the Act. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely,
