Bill overview
The Monarch Action, Recovery, and Conservation of Habitat Act of 2020, or the MONARCH Act, aims to protect the western monarch butterfly population, which is at risk of extinction. It establishes the Western Monarch Butterfly Rescue Fund and directs the USDA to provide grants for conservation projects focused on restoring habitats and promoting pollinator health. The bill also allocates funds to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to support the Western Monarch Butterfly Conservation Plan. Ultimately, the goal is to reverse the dramatic decline of this iconic butterfly species.
