We, the undersigned, implore you to disengage your initiatve to lift the ban on commercial whaling that was put into place over 24 years ago by President Ronald Reagan.
The current ban has decreased the killing of whales from as many as 60,000 deaths per year to around 1,700. The facts have already proven that legalized whaling does not decrease whale deaths, as you claim it would do.
Please honor the campaign promise you made to the American People to end whale slaughter.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
