The Teaming with Wildlife Act
The proposed Teaming with Wildlife Act would provide a reliable and increased amount of funding for preventing wildlife from becoming endangered. The bill would dedicate a portion of existing federal revenue from on-shore and off-shore oil and mineral development activities to the Wildlife Conservation and Restoration Program.

Congressional Champions Calls for Increased State Wildlife
Grants Funding!
In a strong show of support for America’s wildlife,
Representatives and Senators crossed ideological, regional,
and partisan lines to sign a letter urging funding for the
federal State Wildlife Grants, the nation’s core program for
preventing wildlife from becoming endangered in every state.
The letter, addressed to the Chairman and Ranking Member of
both the House and Senate Interior Appropriations
Committees, supports a funding level of $85 million for the
State Wildlife Grants Program in Fiscal Year 2010.
The House letter were led by a bipartisan group from across the nation, including Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA), Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ), Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI) and Rep. Adam Putnam (R-FL).
