Congress Introduces Bill to Save Endangered Butterflies, Fish, Plants, Mollusks

For Immediate Release, May 20, 2021 Contact: Congress Introduces Bill to Save Endangered Butterflies, Fish, Plants, Mollusks WASHINGTON Representative Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) today reintroduced the Extinction Prevention Act of 2021, which would fund crucial conservation work for some of the most critically imperiled species in the United States. The legislation would establish four grant programs that each provides $5 million per year. These targeted funds would provide urgently needed on-the-ground conservation actions to stabilize and save from extinction the four groups of endangered species at greatest risk of extinction: North American butterflies, freshwater mussels, desert fish and Hawaiian plants.

Members of Congress Request $50 Million to Save Monarch Butterflies

For Immediate Release, April 29, 2021 Contact: Members of Congress Request $50 Million to Save Monarch Butterflies WASHINGTON For the first time ever, 56 U.S. representatives have urged the House Appropriations Committee to spend $50 million per year to stabilize and help recover monarch butterflies. Today’s letter, led by Reps. Jimmy Panetta (D-Calif.) and Salud Carbajal (D-Calif.), notes that the monarch population has plummeted more than 80% in the past two decades. Specifically, lawmakers requested that the committee allocate $25 million to support the conservation of western monarch butterflies in line with the spirit of the Monarch Action, Recovery, and Conservation of Habitat Act (MONARCH Act). The MONARCH Act, introduced March 17, would provide emergency funds for on-the-ground conservation projects that would help pull western monarchs back from the brink of extinction.

Biden Administration Urged to Use Lacey Act to Ban Wildlife Imports That May Spread Disease

For Immediate Release, April 22, 2021 Contact: Daniela Arellano, NRDC, (424) 268-6677, darellano@nrdc.org Biden Administration Urged to Use Lacey Act to Ban Wildlife Imports That May Spread Disease WASHINGTON In a bid to reduce the risk of zoonotic diseases entering the United States, a group of conservation organizations urged the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service today to assess and designate wildlife species as “injurious” based on their potential to transmit diseases that could threaten human health. The American Rescue Plan Act, signed into law in March, provided the Service with $10 million to carry out additional Lacey Act activities related to wildlife trade and COVID-19. But it did not specify how to spend that funding. Under the Lacey Act, once a species is added to the list of injurious wildlife, it may not be imported into the United States.
