#NREPA is the most ambitious, but also the most ecological legislation ever introduced into Congress. Write your legislators and ask them to co-support NREPA! Write your local newspaper! The grizzly bear, the salmon, the wolves, the sage grouse, and the elk will be thankful you did.

The FWS and NMFS want to redefine what “harm” means in the ESA to exclude the degradation and destruction of habitat. Their proposal is like allowing someone who destroys a farm family’s crops, equipment, and house to claim innocence because they did not kill the farmers themselves.
