Explosive New Momentum Behind Wolf-Saving Bill
Rodger Schlickeisen, Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund
In the two days since I last wrote…
- The Protect America’s Wildlife (PAW) Act was introduced in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Fifteen more representatives signed on as cosponsors, bringing the cosponsor count to an impressive 106 representatives in the House. And Senator Sheldon Cardin (RI) joined Senators Dianne Cardin (CA) and Ben Cardin (MD) as Senate cosponsors of the PAW Act.
- Donations from caring people like you helped us run our hard hitting new ad in Roll Call, one of Capitol Hill’s most influential publications. With your help, we’ve sent a powerful message to Congress about the need for action to save wolves.
Even with this phenomenal momentum, we’re in for a tough fight in the days and weeks ahead. Fortunately, we have some great allies in our efforts to save wolves and other wildlife from aerial gunning -- allies like you.
Please consider making a donation to help support the Campaign to Stop the Alaska Wolf Massacre’s efforts to captialize on this amazing momentum and build even more vital support for the PAW Act.
Today, representatives are headed to their home districts for the August congressional recess, and senators will return home at the end of next week. But even while Congress is out of session, Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund will continue our fight to end Alaska’s awful aerial wolf-killing programs and prevent this terrible practice from spreading to other states.
All this month, we’ll be mobilizing wildlife supporters across the country, reaching out to conservationists and other allies in Alaska, spotlighting the awful truth about aerial gunning through our powerful new video and contacting more Congressional offices to build support for the PAW Act. Will you help?
With your help, we’re building powerful momentum for an end to Alaska’s brutal and misguided aerial wolf-killing programs. Together, we can win this fight.
Sincerely,
 |
 Rodger Schlickeisen President Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund |
P.S. We can’t win this fight without the support of congressional champions or caring people like you. Please consider donating to help support our efforts in the weeks ahead
