This Mother’s Day we celebrate mother figures everywhere, including the ocean. @neaq's aerial survey over the Northeast Canyons & Seamounts spotted whale moms w/their babies, including a pilot whale “daycare” with 4 calves! President Donald J. Trump must not remove protections for this area.

Last week, young leaders from EarthEcho joined DC’s Capitol Hill Ocean Week and Upwell to elevate conservations around justice, equity, and youth leadership in ocean policy. We’re grateful to them for speaking at events and connecting with changemakers.

Amid President Donald J. Trump’ efforts to roll back ocean protections and eliminate NOAA research, Members of Congress are taking charge to protect our oceans. TY Rep. Jared Huffman and other champions fighting for responsible ocean policy, science-based decisions, and international leadership.

Jaws terrified audiences, but also sparked curiosity about our ocean. 🦈 50 years later, the real threat isn’t sharks. It’s us. Today, Wendy Benchley honors her late husband Peter’s legacy & urges us to act now to protect the ocean he loved. #OceanMonth usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

Thanks to Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari, Congresswoman Maxine Dexter, Representative Val Hoyle, and Rep.

Deep sea mining threatens our oceans & American Samoa's way of life. 🚨 The proposed project off American Samoa is reckless & unnecessary. Speak up before July 16! Submit your comment to Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and tell them to halt deep sea mining plans. #DefendTheDeep #ProtectOurOcean

Thank you Rep. Jared Huffman Representative Val Hoyle for speaking out against the Undersea Cable Protection Act. This bill allows tech companies to disrupt delicate habitat in our marine sanctuaries with NO accountability.
