Call Tomorrow to Save Endangered Species!These possible reg changes could really roll back ESA implementation and species protection. The phone number here is for my Congressman, but it would be great if you would consider making a call to yours. If you have questions, give me a call.

Medlock Drive Phoenix, AZ 85012 602-274-5544 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: Center for Biological Diversity To: Jerome Stefferud Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2007 2:24 PM Subject: Call Tomorrow to Save Endangered Species! Dear Jerome, Newly leaked documents show that the Bush administration is working on regulations that would sidestep Congress to roll back the Endangered Species Act. Fortunately, some congressional leaders are standing up to the administration. Please join people across the country for a National Call-in Day of Action on Wednesday, May 2! Tomorrow, May 2, call your representative in Congress and ask him or her to sign on to the letter of opposition being circulated by Representatives Hinchey, Moran, and Shays. Your Representative's phone number: Ed Pastor, (202) 225-4065 WHAT'S AT STAKE Following the collapse of Richard Pombo's efforts to undermine the Endangered Species Act in 2006, the Bush administration pledged to eviscerate it through administrative rulemaking instead. On March 27, some of the administration's plans came to light in a set of leaked draft regulations that would slash the Endangered Species Act from head to toe. Fortunately, these damaging regulations have not yet been formally proposed - and a strong showing of concern from Congress will help keep it that way. TALKING POINTS FOR YOUR CALL a.. Please sign the Hinchey/Moran/Shays letter about the Bush administration's draft Endangered Species Act regulations. b.. The regulations are a sweeping rewrite that attacks almost every aspect of the Act. If adopted, they would hinder endangered species listing, recovery, habitat protection, and federal oversight. c.. Congress must review any broad changes to the Endangered Species Act. Click here for more information about the draft regulations.
