“The proposed budget deal would remove wolves from the endangered species list in Montana and Idaho -- and possibly Washington, Oregon and Utah as well.

Not only would the proposed wolf delisting rider leave the 1,270 wolves in Montana and Idaho -- and possibly the 37 wolves in Washington and Oregon -- permanently unprotected, but enacting this measure through legislation would set a horrific precedent to further undermine the Endangered Species Act by excluding other species on political whim and preventing environmental groups from being able to enforce the law.”
