Trump administration reportedly planning to reduce protections for birds
PUBLISHED THU, JAN 30 2020
Hannah Miller

KEY POINTS:

. The Trump administration is set to finalize a regulation Thursday that will end penalties against oil, gas and construction businesses that “incidentally” cause the deaths of birds as a result of their work, The New York Times reported.

. The regulation would reduce protections for birds offered by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and only punish companies that kill birds with explicit intent.

. Though the legislation is not yet finalized, the Trump administration has already advised local governments and businesses to not take steps to protect birds, according to the Times.
