Protecting Property Rights Protects Endangered Species

Husband David writes to share news of a letter he and others recently delivered to U.S. Rep. Richard Pombo (R-CA), Chairman of the U.S. House Resources Committee.

This letter was sent to let him know how deeply committed many people — including leaders of national and grassroots property rights, conservative and free market organizations — continue to be to private property rights. It also is intended to let him know that we believe that the Endangered Species Act will continue to fail so long as it penalizes private property owners for good environmental stewardship.

We’re continuing to encourage organizations to sign the letter and will update it frequently. Individuals are now welcome to sign the letter, too — we’ll just need you to send us your name, contact information, city and state.

And we welcome everyone to distribute the letter far and wide.

We believe that the principles of a free market, individual liberty and personal responsibility provide the greatest hope for meeting the challenges facing America in the 21st century.
