Puget Sound Day on the Hill is just around the corner. From April 25 to May 2, we’re once again gathering a group to make the trip to Washington, D.C. to meet with key decision-makers in Congress to talk about the benefits of a healthy Puget Sound brings to the entire nation.
Whether or not you’re planning to join us in person, you can support our efforts by adding your name in support of robust, sustained federal investments in Puget Sound recovery. The threat of significant disruption to federal funding to Puget Sound has never been more pressing, and voicing your support of maintaining these critical resources has never been more important.
To show your support, use this form to sign on to our letters outlining priority funding for the FY25 appropriations. You can add your signature up until Wednesday, April 23, 2025.
We will send these letters to both House and Senate appropriations committees as they begin to mark up the FY26 appropriations bills. We want the list of supporters to reflect the diversity of the organizations and individuals working toward recovering Puget Sound.
The letters are available to read here.

Thank you, and we hope you can join us in standing up for Puget Sound and salmon recovery!
