The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), through pressure from the Trump White House, has suspended key grants that support anti-poaching patrols and habitat protection, a move that could have devastating consequences for elephant populations worldwide.

There is so much amazing work being done around the world to help protect elephants but let’s do what we can in our own backyard to help their efforts. Let’s get Congress to act now by passing legislation to end the Trump Administration’s support for the slaughter of elephants and return the protections that have been supported for decades by Presidents of both political parties. Elephant protection should not be a partisan issue - saving them is a testament to our humanity.
