Information:

The national wildlife refuge system in the United States is the world's largest, most diverse network of lands dedicated to preserving habitat for plants and animals. These refuges provide desperately needed sanctuaries for more than 280 protected species, as well as pollinators like bees and butterflies. 

Yet federal officials routinely let private operators grow commercial crops in these precious places, dumping hundreds of thousands of pounds of dangerous agricultural poisons on them every year. We need your help to protect declining wildlife species, biodiversity, soil health, and the refuges' other unique natural resources.  

Join us in calling on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to phase out toxic pesticides for private agricultural purposes in national wildlife refuges.
