Important action alert for you courtesy of the Columbia/Snake River Campaign

Before you sign off to enjoy the three-day weekend, we have an important action alert for you courtesy of the Columbia/Snake River Campaign

On September 3rd, Congress is considering H.R. 2073, the “Defending Our Dams Act,” a bill that locks in the failing status quo on the lower Snake River and blocks real solutions for salmon, orcas, and Tribal treaty rights. It will further stall the Columbia Basin Restoration Initiative (CBRI), and threaten Northwest communities who depend on healthy rivers. We can’t let that happen.

CONTACT YOUR MEMBER OF CONGRESS BY SEPTEMBER 2ND ASKING THEM TO OPPOSE THIS BILL. You can do this anywhere in the US, but this is especially important if your representative is Val Hoyle (OR-4), Maxine Dexter (OR-3), Emily Randall (WA-6), Andrea Salinas (OR-6), Marie Glusenkamp Perez (WA-3), Kim Schrier (WA-8), or Rick Larsen (WA-2).

HERE is a link where you can learn more and sent a letter to your representative.
