It\\u2019s time to breach the Snake River dams, for endangered orcas and salmon, climate action, and social justice. And Biden\\u2019s Infrastructure Plan is the way to do it. Brian Jenkins from Blackfin Coffee and Gloria Pancrazi from the Coextinction film & PNW Protectors chatted with Erica about the new Infrastructure Plan and how we can use it to help the Southern Residents.

Here are some bullet points of what to include in your call or letter:

\\n

    \\u2043    Biden\'s infrastructure Bill needs to include breaching the Snake River dams this year. 

\\n

    \\u2043    This can be done by supporting and funding Mike Simpson\\u2019s plan to remove the four lower Snake River dams, but Simpson\\u2019s plan needs to be revised to breach this year.

\\n

    \\u2043    This is key to saving endangered chinook salmon and southern resident orcas. 

\\n

    \\u2043    Breaching the Snake River dams will create 4000-8000 long-term jobs per year.
