It’s finally happening–the last thing in the world USDA’s Wildlife Services wants!
Members of Congress and their staff have been invited to see our award-winning, whistle-blowing film, “EXPOSED: USDA’s Secret War on Wildlife,” at a special screening and panel discussion in D.C. It will be held:
Monday, June 15, 3:00-4:00 p.m.
2168 Rayburn Building (the Gold Room)
U.S. Capitol, Washington, D.C.
The panel discussion after the film will enable folks in D.C. to hear directly from a Wildlife Services’ whistle-blower, a victim, and proponents of reform. It is our hope that legislation to reform this barbaric, unaccountable, and utterly misnamed predator control program will be introduced by Representative Peter DeFazio (D-OR) in the coming weeks.
I’ve attached the invitation we sent to the Hill. Please forward this email to your members, friends, and anyone you think would be interested. Let them know that this is the film Jane Goodall wants millions to see and urge them to ask their Representative to attend this important event.
I’d like to extend a special thanks to our event co-sponsors, without which it would not have happened: Representative Peter DeFazio, the Congressional Animal Protection Caucus, the Animal Welfare Institute, Born Free USA, The Humane Society of the United States, Natural Resources Defense Council, and the International Fund for Animal Welfare.
Working together, we can expose the secret war against wildlife being waged on the taxpayer’s dime and hold Wildlife Services accountable at last.
Best,
Brooks

Fabulous, Brooks! I will contact the offices of my US Rep and both US Senators right now! Great work.
Ah, you say the sweetest things….
Sounds great. I’ll be to know how many members of Congress will go or if any minds will be changed.
Reblogged this on Coalition for American Wildbirds.
It IS members of congress that allocate USDA, US Fish and Wildlife Service budgets. The members of the House and Senate Agriculture committee’s are in bed with animal enterprises as this is “how the west was won” off the ideology that humans have exclusive entitlement to take and exploit non-humans since after all, “they were placed here for us.” The corruption being perpetrated upon nature and animals IS because the new world order is the religion of money over all. Both parties subscribe to money making the rules and nature as the unwilling prostitute, sold to the highest johns. Our top of the food chain hubris has created a society way too big for its britches, literally and figuratively. Smaller government would rid this agency, as well as suspend ALL funding for all animal research through NIH, and all subsidies for animal feed and farmed animal production. That is OUR tax dollars that do NO GOOD, only harm. There’s a reason organic produce and fruit is so costly, a political failure due to a moral failure of congress to support health over disease, humane behavior over male domination. and sustainable use of our public lands.
