Act by February 13: Protect the Izembek Wildlife Refuge

Stop the ecologically destructive land swap and road through an Alaska Wildlife Refuge that threatens the food security of Western Alaska tribes.

The federal government has proposed a land swap and road in Alaska that would slice through a critically important refuge for migratory bird species that are essential for food security and the cultural practices of Native Village of Hooper Bay tribal members.

Allowing this land swap and road to move forward is likely to cause severe and irreparable harm to the Native Village of Hooper Bay, and the many other tribes who have passed resolutions opposing the project.  

Earthjustice is representing the Native Village of Hooper Bay in this fight to prevent harm caused by this proposed road construction — and we need you to lend your voice as well. 

Tell the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service and the Secretary of the Interior to withdraw this project all together, or, if they must move forward, to choose the “no action” alternative — because there are other viable options that will not result in irreparable harm to tribal communities in Western Alaska.
