U.S. House of Representatives
The Extinction Prevention Act of 2021, introduced by Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), will provide much-needed resources to protect some of the most imperiled wildlife species in the United States.
More than one million plant and animal species are at risk of extinction — and species of all kinds are already disappearing at an alarming rate due to human activity. We don't have time to waste in getting this bill passed into law.
In a Congress this divided, it's important to show that this bill has strong public backing. Add your name today to show you support the Extinction Prevention Act of 2021, and together let's tell Congress the time to act is now.

The Extinction Prevention Act of 2021, a comprehensive bill that will provide much-needed resources to protect some of the most imperiled wildlife species in the United States.
Among the species at the highest risk are those considered less 'charismatic' because support for the protection of these species has been underfunded for decades.
This bill will provide crucial resources for conservation projects that will protect, restore, and monitor four groups of species that are most at risk of extinction, which include North American butterflies, various Pacific Island plants, freshwater mussels, and Southwest desert fish.
The Extinction Prevention Act of 2021 will give these highly imperiled wildlife species a fighting chance to survive the extinction crisis. I'm calling on Congress to vote to pass this bill before it's too late.
