| Good news! Last week, the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) cleared a major hurdle when it passed out of the House Committee on Natural Resources. For more than 50 years, LWCF has helped protect birds and their habitats by conserving public land in every state. But, without action from Congress, this valuable, bipartisan program is set to expire this month. To date, more than 21,500 Audubon supporters like you have written to their members of Congress in support of LWCF. Now we have joined the Our Lands, Our Voice campaign to save this program. If you haven’t already, please add your name. |
