President and CEO Barry Russell Letter to Congressional Western Caucus Chairman Paul Gosar Supporting the Endangered Species Act Modernization Package

Dear Chairman Gosar: The Independent Petroleum Association of America writes to express its support for the nine bills included in the Congressional Western Caucus Endangered Species Act Modernization Package. IPAA believes both exploration and development of America’s oil and natural gas resources and conservation can coexist through reasonable and balanced wildlife policy. This legislative package would aid in the modernization of the 1973 Endangered Species Act and benefit not only the regulated community, but further enhance protection of endangered plants and animals across the United States.
