The Biden Administration released their 30x30 campaign outline today. We fully support efforts to fully fund National Wildlife Refuge System operations and maintenance, establish wildlife corridors, and expand protected lands. This plan seeks to do all this, plus increase outreach to private landowners, many of whom are all in on protecting their land for wildlife.
“FWS should also work with States, local communities, and others to explore where there is support to enhance the National Wildlife Refuge System, which provides important anchors for wildlife conservation throughout the nation. The Biden-Harris administration welcomes Congressional efforts to support on-the-ground habitat restoration for at-risk species through collaboration with State fish and wildlife agencies.”
