Tell Your Legislators to Protect Wildlife Across Washington!

For 23 years, the state has used a nationally recognized, competitive evaluation process to select and fund the very best wildlife habitat, parks, trails, boat launches, fishing docks, ballfields and farms around the state.

Unfortunately, the Senate eliminates funding for highly ranked wildlife projects, undermining the integrity of objective rankings by independent experts. This kind of tinkering will hurt the very fundamentals that have made the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program a success for over 20 years.

Message to Legislators:  Please restore the integrity of the Washington Wildlife & Recreation Program and protect wildlife habitat across the state.

State Senators cherry pick projects, ignore WWRP rankings

The State Senate's proposed budget slashes Washington Wildlife & Recreation Program funding to almost half of what Governor Inslee recommended while favoring poorly ranked projects over highly ranked ones. The WWRP's independent ranking system is the key to its years of success, ensuring only the best projects get funded. Take action & urge your legislators to restore full funding today!

LWCF full funding bill reintroduced

Sens. Baucus (MT), Burr (NC), and Wyden (OR) & 4 cosponsors have introduced a new bill, the “Land and Water Conservation Authorization and Funding Act of 2013,” to provide full, permanent and dedicated funding for LWCF. Please join us in asking Senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray to renew their support and once again co-sponsor the bill!
