The group Columbia Riverkeeper has delivered a petition with over one-thousand signatures and comments to Northwest Senators and President Biden asking for removal of Snake River dams. They claim it will help to stop salmon extinction and honor tribal rights. The petition, signed by over 1,000 people from the Northwest and nationally since the beginning of 2022, asks federal leaders to enact a plan for Lower Snake River Dam removal before the end of the year. Columbia Riverkeeper’s petition delivery is the latest in widespread efforts by tribal and conservation groups calling for government officials to deliver a plan for Snake River dam removal.
