Last week the Trump Administration laid off nearly 1000 NOAA staff, including scientists and specialists charged with managing and caretaking of our marine wildlife and important habitat, including archeological, cultural and historical treasures. As a group that has worked with our National Marine Sanctuaries in education, science and establishment of new Sanctuaries, this loss of many of the staff we have worked with is devastating. Budget cuts and the potential stripping of marine protection in our National Marine Sanctuaries is an imminent threat to over fifty years of wildlife and habitat in the USA.
Shark Stewards urges you to contact your congressman and support NOAA and our National Marine Sanctuaries.
