“Meaningful reform of the Endangered Species Act requires that Congress take action to restore its original purpose and end its use to seize private property, prevent economic development, and interfere with the rights of states over their wildlife populations.”
Citation: Project 2025, Section 3.7: Department of the Interior, William Perry Pendley, page 565, paragraph 6
Context:
More recommendations that we harm endangered species and wildlife in the name of capitalism. To this end, Pendley recommends de-listing the grizzly bear and the gray wolf as endangered species, so we’d no longer need to worry about protecting those – they wouldn’t qualify for protection anyway. Right now, it’s illegal to harm, harass, or kill grizzly bears, unless it’s in self-defense. This will open them up to be hunted. And yes, they’re still endangered.
