We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Earthjustice.

The short explanation of this alert was:
For almost 30 years, America's wildlife has depended on the Endangered Species Act for protection. But now that protection is being threatened -- Rep. James Hansen (R-UT) has proposed and the House Resources Committee has passed a bill that is a stealth attempt to undermine science and weaken the Endangered Species Act. While the bill purports to ensure "sound science" it actually seeks to limit the scientific tools available to scientists, hamper the ability of citizens to petition to protect species, and give special access to industry. Under the guise of expanding peer review, the bill seeks to delay actions necessary to protect species. Please email your representative today and ask them to oppose Rep. Hansen's "Unsound Science" bill.
