If you live in the US, please consider the following: I participated on a webinar tonight with Alaska Wilderness League and do have something to ask of all of you if you have the time. Please call your representatives in Congress ASAP, asking them to become original cosponsors of this bill that has not been introduced yet during this session. Rep. Huffman (D-CA) is the author of this bill: Arctic Cultural and Coastal Plain Protection Act. If you'd like to see the text of the bill you can find it here: https://www.congress.gov/…/115t…/house-bill/5911/cosponsors…. AWL would like to see a minimum of 150 original cosponsors. It will be reintroduced soon. Let's get it done.
Even though quite a few representatives signed on as original cosponsors last year when it was introduced in committee, that doesn't mean they're still cosponsors. It's something they would have to do again. So my ask is simple. If they haven't, please ask them to sign on, and if they have, please thank them. Easy ask.
IMHO we have to do whatever we can to protect ANWR from any drilling that the current administration is trying to push through now.
For the Gwich'in, for the caribou, for all of us.
