One of the oldest environmental laws in our country, the Migratory Bird Treaty
Act (MBTA), is coming under attack by Members of Congress. This week, the House
of Representatives passed a provision in a bill that would bar the Department
of Justice from enforcing the MBTA - essentially declaring that it's open
season on birds!
The MBTA is the primary piece of legislation in the United States established
to protect over 1,000 species of migratory birds (like this Baltimore Oriole,
pictured). If this measure is adopted by the United States Senate, it could
result in the harm and or death of millions of birds with no consequences for
perpetrators.
Tell your Senators to stand up and fight for birds by protecting the Migratory
Bird Treaty Act!
