Trump has withdrawn the U.S. government from an agreement to restore native fish being decimated by hydroelectric dams in the Columbia River Basin.

President Donald Trump on Thursday pulled the U.S. out of an agreement with Washington, Oregon and four American Indian tribes to work together to restore salmon populations and boost tribal energy development in the Pacific Northwest,

In a memorandum, Trump reneged on more than a billion dollars the Biden administration promised to tribes for renewable energy and salmon recovery. He also halted a government-wide initiative to restore abundant salmon runs in the Columbia and Snake rivers and signaled an end to the government’s willingness to consider dam removal.
