Conservation laws like the National Environmental Policy Act rank among our nation’s most fundamental achievements: for decades, these measures have fostered incredible progress in protecting birds from threats to their habitats, food, water, and air. Yet all that progress is at risk now, and so are the birds we love, because, incredibly, key conservation policies are still under attack—even in the final months of the current administration.

The Trump administration has gone all out to weaken 125 of the rules and policies that protect birds and their habitats. And during the final months of their term, we need to brace for a renewed volley of attacks. This Giving Tuesday, please give birds the power of your protection.

Even our most important conservation laws haven’t been immune from this administration’s attacks. Take the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which sets out common-sense requirements for considering environmental consequences and soliciting public input for federal projects—requirements that have long protected important habitats and vulnerable communities. But the administration has slashed NEPA, clearing the way to fast-track projects without regard for safety. And that’s just one of the 125 conservation measures they’ve targeted. We’ve gone to court to prevent them from gutting this law outright, to hold the government to its duty to wildlife and people. With your support, we’ll have the strength to see this action through, and to stave off any other last-ditch attempts to undermine conservation. Even after inauguration, our fight for birds must continue: We’ll need to regroup and begin the work of repairing the damage done. Will you please do all you can to help right away? Giving Tuesday is tomorrow, so take that step now to help secure their safest future.
