TU fights for Endangered Species Act

Trout Unlimited is among the organizations fighting to stop efforts to weaken the Endangered Species Act.

This blog by Kate Miller provides a look at TU’s stance and efforts.

The Endangered Species Coalition, of which TU is a member, has started a petition to stop the changes.

The Connecticut League of Conservation Voters is asking Attorney General William Tong to join other states in a lawsuit to protect wildlife, according to a letter from Deputy Director Amanda Schoen, Deputy Director of the CTLCV.

“When one species dies off, it can threaten an entire ecosystem. In the case of key species or major pollinators, that can also impact our farms, agriculture industry, and even our food supply. Rolling back the Endangered Species Act threatens not just our environment, but also our economy,” Schoen wrote.
