    138 attacks on the Endangered Species Act in one Congress alone! The ESA, our most powerful tool against extinction, is under unprecedented assault. In the 118th Congress, anti-wildlife actions tripled from previous years, with protections for gray wolves, endangered whales, and other species at risk. Many of these attacks are hidden in spending bills as “poison-pill” riders. The Center for Biological Diversity Action Fund just released a new report cataloging these attacks. Losing the ESA would mean irreversible wildlife losses and weakened ecosystems. Your vote is the most powerful way to voice your concern and protect our planet’s future. Our most vulnerable wildlife needs us. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/gVVr5zCY

    Over 50 companies are joining the growing chorus in calling for the designation of Sáttítla National Monument. As a part of #MobilizingforMonuments, we are speaking up to protect the outdoors. We are joining the Pit River Tribe, local community members, and elected officials in calling on President Biden to designate the Sáttítla National Monument in Northern California. Sáttítla would protect over 200,000 acres of public lands, critical water resources, and a place where families come to camp, hike, bike, and seek solitude. Join us in advocating for this new national monument by signing the petition: https://lnkd.in/gZhvEQ7S

    As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the California Desert Protection Act and Coachella Valley pride month, the LGBTQ+ community in the desert is calling on President Biden to establish the Chuckwalla National Monument! The outdoors is for everyone, and we all deserve to be “out”-side. Nature is vital for mental health and self-discovery, and Chuckwalla would expand outdoor access for the Eastern Coachella Valley, creating more opportunities for recreation and connection. Let’s come together to celebrate Pride and protect the lands that sustain us Head out to the proposed Chuckwalla National Monument on a road trip. It promises good company, charcuterie, and a drag show! Plus, we’re excited that our very own Linda Castro will be speaking! Click here for more information: https://lnkd.in/gCDhY6zq

    It's National Public Lands Day! CalWild works to protect forever the special, unique, beautiful and biotically rich places on California's federal public lands. As nearly half of the state is federally managed, our work is essential for reaching the state's "30x30" goal to protect 30% of its habitat lands by 2030. Today we celebrate the magnificent beauty, cultural significance, recreational opportunities and restorative power offered by California's public lands!
