Mr. Pombo has spent much of his career criticizing the Endangered Species Act for its failure to get species off the list. Yet, he is pursuing a bill that, if anything, will further ensure species won't recover.

[Conservationists say it weakens all protections for endangered- species habitat and creates a massive entitlement program for developers.] The National Wildlife Federation is vehemently opposed to the Pombo strategy, ... We've dubbed it the extinction bill.

And so you don't take anything for granted in politics.

Stephanie Pincetl

The report argues that the (low) figure is not the best measure of success or failure of the act to this point. Many endangered species are making steady progress toward recovery under the Endangered Species Act.

This bill is not about fixing the Endangered Species Act, it's about gutting it,

It is a drastic mistake to eliminate the provisions that have to do with the protection of habitat for endangered species, ... It is my opinion that the Endangered Species Act is 99 percent about protecting critical habitat.

In the 33-year history of the Endangered Species Act, less than one percent of species listed as endangered or threatened under the Act have been recovered. While most would consider a less-than-one-percent recovery rate a failure, many environmentalists apparently consider it good enough to continue the status quo.
