In a welcome relief for birds, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) has delayed implementing the latest attack on the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
Just days before this devastating new rule was to go into effect, the Biden administration announced it was reassessing the law's rollback and its protections for birds.
FWS is now accepting additional public comments on this rule to inform its next steps.
Please send a public comment supporting restoring protections for birds under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. The deadline to comment is Monday, March 1.
