It’s time to breach the Snake River dams, for endangered orcas and salmon, climate action, and social justice. And Biden’s Infrastructure Plan is the way to do it. Brian Jenkins from Blackfin Coffee and Gloria Pancrazi from the Coextinction film & PNW Protectors chatted with Erica about the new Infrastructure Plan and how we can use it to help the Southern Residents.
Call to action:
Call and write to Senator Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell!
Here are some bullet points of what to include in your call or letter:
⁃ Biden's infrastructure Bill needs to include breaching the Snake River dams this year.
⁃ This can be done by supporting and funding Mike Simpson’s plan to remove the four lower Snake River dams, but Simpson’s plan needs to be revised to breach this year.
⁃ This is key to saving endangered chinook salmon and southern resident orcas.
⁃ Breaching the Snake River dams will create 4000-8000 long-term jobs per year.
⁃ It is also an important step toward climate action and social justice.
