You can help STOP Icelandic whaling!

Iceland will RESUME the hunting of endangered Fin whales this summer!

You can help save the whales by writing to President Obama.

Ask the U.S. President to enact economic sanctions against Icelandic marine products (under the 1971 Pelly Amendment to the Fisherman's Protective Act and 1979 Packwood-Magnuson Amendment to the Fishery Conservation and Management Act) until the commercial slaughter of whales, especially endangered species, is stopped!
