Take Action: Snake River Dams

Speak up for salmon and Tribal rights! The Biden Administration opened a formal public comment period about restoring salmon and removing the Lower Snake River dams.

The easiest way to make your voice heard is to submit a written comment to the White House using the form below. You can quickly submit a comment by using the language provided, but we encourage you to take few minutes to explain why salmon and un-damming the Lower Snake River matter to you!

If you have submitted a similar comment in the past, please do so again—this is a new and unique opportunity to show the Biden Administration that there is strong support for removing the Lower Snake Dams and replacing their services."

President Biden and members of the Biden Administration:
Your Administration promised a durable, long-term strategy to restore healthy and abundant salmon in the Columbia River basin. Then, your Administration’s top scientists concluded that Snake River dam removal is necessary to restore salmon runs. Now there’s just one thing to do: commit to removing the Snake River dams and replacing the services they provide. 
We need your swift, effective leadership. By August 2023, your Administration should: 
(1) outline a basin-wide restoration plan that includes Snake River dam removal, and; 
(2) commit to supplementing the 2020 Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision for the dams.      
Snake River dam removal is the only realistic option to keep your Administration's promise of preventing the extinction of salmon and orcas while honoring Tribal rights. Do you have the courage to keep your promises and trust in science? 
Sincerely,

RSVP
