US Endangered Species Act Under Attack

Bush threatens a rule change which may cause species extinction.

A shocking report by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) says that the Bush Administration has waged a war to weaken and turn back the clock on more than 30 years of environmental progress.

The report says that Bush is now turning his sights on America’s premier federal statute created to bring species back from the brink of extinction.
Utilizing a behind-the-scenes approach to evade media coverage and public input, the Administration is proposing a rule change to the Endangered Species Act (ESA) that will legalize the commercial exploitation of endangered species.
