TELL
PRESIDENT
OBAMA....
"STOP THE PROPOSAL TO SUSPEND THE BAN ON COMMERCIAL WHALING!"
ACS is working hard to stop an unprecedented "compromise package" allowing commercial whaling for the first time since the international ban on whaling was adopted in 1986. The package will be voted upon at the annual meeting of the International Whaling Commission held this June in Morocco.
Candidate Obama gave his word of honor to the American people that he would do everything in his power to uphold the ban on whaling.
"As President, I will ensure that the U.S. provides leadership in enforcing international wildlife protection agreements, including strengthening the international moratorium on commercial whaling. Allowing Japan to continue commercial whaling is unacceptable."
Candidate Barack Obama, March 16, 2008
Together we can stop the legitimizing of commercial whaling!
