Protect the Endangered Species Act Now

Contact Your Congressional Representatives

We need to let our Representatives know that we need more time to comment on this consequential change!

Here is a sample comment:

Subject: Proposed Endangered Species Act Modification Docket (FWS-HQ-ES-2025-0034)

"The Administration is proposing a very consequential rule change modifying the definition of "Harm" under the Endangered Species Act. This modification will have multiple and significant real world implications. The unusually short 30-day comment period does not allow adequate time to provide appropriately thorough comments. Please help to secure an extension of the comment period to 90 days from the date of publication to provide the public with sufficient time to respond."

You can use the sample comment if you prefer. However, it is always better if you use your own words. The important factors to include in the requests are:

1. Docket (FWS-HQ-ES-2025-0034)

2. The Administration is proposing a very consequential rule change modifying the definition of "Harm" under the Endangered Species Act.

3. This modification will have multiple and significant real world implications.

4. Request that the comment period be extended to 90 days from the date of publication to allow adequate time to provide appropriately thorough comments
