It is unacceptable that my federal government spends my tax dollars to kill well over a million native animals each year. I am calling on you, as my members of Congress, to defund the cruel practices of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Services program.

Wildlife Services neither serves wildlife nor American citizens. Wildlife Services is poisonous to our wildlife and public lands and puts our companion animals and children at risk.

For decades, Wildlife Service has blatantly ignored the best available science regarding the benefits of native wildlife on public lands, the necessity of biodiversity to the environment and climate, and the ineffectiveness of lethal control to prevent livestock depredation. The program defies fiscal responsibility, public safety, and accountability. In March of 2018 alone, Wildlife Services accidentally killed 13 dogs; this kind of indiscriminate violence is unacceptable.

Public lands should be places where people can safely recreate with our families and companion animals, and where wild animals are not slaughtered by the federal government.  Our taxpayer dollars should provide taxpayer-supported services that benefit the greatest good, not destroy biodiversity and ecosystem health for a few private agricultural interests. I call on you to defund Wildlife Services' outdated, unscientific, ineffective, and fiscally irresponsible practices.

Sincerely,
