“Endangered Species Act listing decisions must be based only on science, and the scientists have finished their work on the polar bear listing. There is no reason for political appointees to interfere. Time and again, delays like this one have been used by bureaucrats in Washington to illegally overrule and rewrite the conclusions of agency scientists. This delay is illegal and unjustified.”
“At the same time the administration is illegally delaying a decision on the polar bear listing, it is also racing to sell some of the polar bear´s most important habitat in the Chukchi Sea for oil and gas development”
