The Senate Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies will mark-up it's bill today. This bill will include proposed funding for State and Tribal Wildlife Grants for FY10. For those states with members of the subcommitttee (list below), please send a quick email/phone message and ask your member to support $115M for state wildlife grants (increase of $40M to help combat climate change) and to reduce the match requirement for implementation projects to 75:25 (reduction in match is needed because the economic crisis has signigicantly reduced the ability of many states to provide matching funds). Thanks.
