What passage of Recovering America's Wildlife Act means for at-risk species in Texas and across the United States:
- America’s fish and wildlife are in a serious decline. The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act will provide $1.4 billion annually to states and tribes to stop the decline.
- The funding will help restore wildlife habitat such as grasslands, prairies, forests, and rivers.
- Proactive investment is a proven tool in bringing wildlife back from the brink.
- The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act is good for our economy. By keeping species off the Endangered Species list, it avoids business slowdowns.
- Texas’ fast-growing multi-million dollar outdoor recreation industry depends on protecting fish, wildlife, and their habitats.
- This funding will fuel thousands of new jobs in areas such as habitat and wildlife management, nature tourism, wildlife research, and environmental education.
- The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act has broad-based bipartisan support.
