A pledge to save monarchs

The National Wildlife Federation's

Mayors' Monarch Pledge

Mayors and other heads of local and tribal government are taking action to help save the monarch butterfly, an iconic species whose eastern populations have declined by 90% and western populations by 99% in recent years. Through the National Wildlife Federation's Mayors' Monarch Pledge, U.S. cities, municipalities, and other communities are committing to create habitat for the monarch butterfly and pollinators, and to educate residents about how they can make a difference at home and in their community.

The 2025 pledge period is now open until March 31, 2025. We look forward to receiving your 2025 pledge and working with your community to conserve monarchs!
