The Captive Primate Safety Act (H.R. 3199) is vital legislation designed to protect public safety, public health, and animal welfare by ending the dangerous, irresponsible practice of keeping non-human primates as pets in residential settings. H.R. 3199 is the necessary federal solution. It prohibits the interstate sale, transport, and private ownership of primates, effectively restricting their possession to qualified sanctuaries and accredited facilities.

Wildlife corridors are essential infrastructure projects, like overpasses, underpasses, or specialized fencing, that reconnect habitats fragmented by highways and development. Advocating for your state legislature to include funding and plans for these corridors is critical.

A bottle bill significantly boosts recycling rates and reduces litter by assigning a monetary value (a refundable deposit) to beverage containers. This creates a high-quality stream of clean, sorted materials for manufacturers and shifts the financial responsibility for waste management from taxpayers to producers and consumers. States with bottle bills often achieve recycling rates for these containers that are double or triple those of non-deposit states.
