Stand with Native Youth: Support Removal of the Snake River Dams

As members of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation Youth Leadership Council, we are calling on President Biden to remove the four lower Snake River dams. These dams impact our right to fish under the tribe’s treaty with the United States.

If these dams aren’t removed soon, Snake River salmon will go extinct. 

On June 9, 2021, we sent a letter calling on elected leaders and requesting a meeting with President Biden. We’ve been asked to wait for decades. Salmon are dying and we can't wait any longer. 

Sign our petition and stand with us in our call on President Biden to remove the four lower Snake River dams and save salmon from extinction.

“America made a deal and promised that we would be able to fish forever. We can’t fish if there aren’t any salmon left.” – Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation Youth Leadership Council in their letter to President Biden
