Birders from across the nation will be rallying online to support the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act on Tuesday May 24 at noon (Eastern Daylight Time). This virtual Birders’ Rally is presented by the National Wildlife Federation and Audubon to mobilize birders in support of this important legislation. This exciting event will be hosted by Corina Newsome and Tykee James, with special guests from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, American Bird Conservancy, and more.

The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act is most important legislation that will fund wildlife conservation efforts in American states, territories, and tribal lands with $1.4 billion annually for proactive on-the-ground, collaborative efforts to restore essential habitats and implement key conservation strategies, as described in each state’s Wildlife Action Plan. This legislation follows the recommendation of a diverse group of conservation and industry leaders, the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies’ Blue Ribbon Panel on Sustaining America’s Diverse Fish and Wildlife Resources.
