To my Indiana friends, please consider taking action and sending this automated email to our state reps to protect our wetlands. It literally takes two seconds and could make a huge impact!

Here is the link: https://www.iwla.org/congressweb/help-protect-indiana-wetlands?utm_source=actionalert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=indianawetlandsfeb2021b#/133/
**********
Indiana has already lost 85 percent of its historic wetlands, and many of the Hoosier State's remaining wetlands are now in danger. Senate Bill 389 would eliminate the state program that protects isolated wetlands. These wetlands are not covered by federal protection, meaning this change would leave them at risk of being drained or filled.

Wetlands provide wildlife habitat, reduce flooding, recharge groundwater and filter polluted runoff. It’s crucial that we protect the few wetlands remaining in Indiana. Yet sponsors are rushing SB 389 through the legislature.

SB 389 passed the Indiana Senate on a 29-19 vote, and now it's in the Indiana House. We are asking House members to kill the bill, and opposition to this destructive proposal is growing. Your action today can help ensure Indiana's wetlands keep their protections!

Please contact your state legislators and ask them to vote NO on Senate Bill 389. Thank you for taking action to protect our vital natural resources!
