Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Save Our Wild Salmon.The short explanation of this alert was: There's good news and there's bad news. First, the bad - the numbers of salmon returning to the Columbia and Snake Rivers this spring will be less than half of the biologists' official estimates. Less than half! Our salmon remain in very serious trouble in 2009.
Now, the good news - right now, the Obama Administration is taking a close (and, we hope, skeptical) look at the 2008 Bush-era salmon plan that it inherited this year. And there are new signs of leadership emerging from Idaho. Both Senators there, Mike Crapo and Jim Risch, now publicly recognize the need for a science-driven stakeholder collaboration as a way forward toward a comprehensive, lasting solution that serves the salmon and the people of the Northwest.
