Tell Congress: Sea Turtles Need More Protection to Survive

The long term survival of sea turtles is in jeopardy because of destructive
fishing practices, habitat degradation and climate change. All six species
found in U.S. waters have spent the last three decades listed as “threatened” or
“endangered” but signs of recovery are few and far between.
Urge your
representatives to support new, comprehensive protections for sea turtles that
will work on the land and at sea. The continued existence of sea turtles
depends on it.
