[An unprecedented attack on the ESA. 2X match deadline: midnight]( [Donate Monthly]( The ESA is under siege. Protect birds through this crisis. Last chance: Match for new sustainers Once the Bald Eagle hovered on the edge of extinction. Now it soars strong, thanks to the Endangered Species Act. But the administration has brought the ESA low—putting already-threatened birds in even deeper danger. As they attempt to take down this vital conservation law, every moment matters in the fight for birds’ safest future. For a few hours more, you have an important chance to help: [Sustain our ongoing work with your monthly gift, starting now, and your first three gifts will count double through a special match. Hurry! This offer ends at midnight tonight.]( The ESA has been stunningly effective at preventing extinction. Through its protection, once-threatened birds like the Bald Eagle, the Peregrine Falcon, and the Brown Pelican have recovered so thoroughly that they no longer need to be listed under the Act. But about 100 U.S. bird species still do—and urgently. And as the world warms, more and more birds will struggle. Yet the administration just ruthlessly rolled back the ESA’s protections. Why? To give oil, gas, and mining interests access to critical wildlife habitat. Their changes represent an unprecedented attack on the law—and on our birds and wildlife and the places they need. It’s an emergency. Will you stand with us now? With your dependable monthly donation, you’ll power all we do to protect the habitats and support the survival of the birds you love. And you’ll help keep them flying high into their most hopeful future. [Remember, your first three monthly donations are matched, but only through midnight tonight. So start your sustaining gift now, before time runs out.]( Thank you for protecting birds, today and tomorrow.
