Watch: LOSING PEAKS, PINYONS, AND WILDLIFE: Bodie Hills at Risk- the free virtual presentation on gold exploration in the Bodie Hills by local experts from the Sierra Club and Earthworks that was presented on May 27th. Passcode: *mWV3xPj us02web.zoom.us/rec/play/r95...

Cutting close to 200 California DFW staff while the agency is underfunded and understaffed would be a short-sighted move. With nationwide staff reductions making it harder to protect wildlife as it is, we urge #caleg and @governor.ca.gov‬ to reinstate these positions in the final state budget!
