Sign-on Opportunity for Natural Resources Funding

Tuesday, January 6, 2009

(National Wildlife Federation)NWF is taking the lead on a letter to the Obama Administration, thanking him for his commitment to natural resource funding in any climate change legislation.  You have an opportunity to sign on to this letter and to circulate the letter throughout your network.  Sign-ons must be completed by January 19; the letter will be delivered on January 20, 2009. 

Read this Thank You Letter - This letter is to the incoming Obama Administration for President-Elect Obama's campaign pledge to dedicate a portion of the revenue from global warming legislation to "state and federal land and wildlife managers." 

To sign on your organization email Zach Cockrum (cockrumz@nwf.org) and include:
1.  your name
2.  organization's name
3.  state and zip code 

Feel free to forward this to other organizations or businesses that you feel may be interested in signing! 

Now that President-Elect has assembled his Energy and Environment team, we want to make sure everyone on his team (starting with Carol Browner) knows about his pledge to safeguard natural resources from global warming and knows there is strong grassroots support behind it.  We have assembled a coalition of over two dozen national conservation groups, ranging from wildlife-focused to land trusts to hunting and fishing groups, that have already signed this letter.
