Endangered Species Act Protection for Monarch Butterfly Delayed Until 2030

WASHINGTON— In a bittersweet move for conservation groups, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service today agreed to issue a final listing determination for monarch butterflies by June 6, 2030.

The orange-and-black butterflies were set to be protected as threatened under the Endangered Species Act in December 2025, but the Trump administration failed to finalize protections for them. That led to a lawsuit from the Center for Biological Diversity and Center for Food Safety, which today’s agreement satisfies.

Man shot by ICE in Austin released from hospital, back in detention

A Venezuelan man shot by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer and taken to a detention center in Texas with a bullet still lodged in his back was back in the hospital by Monday night, the man’s attorney said.

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, 28, was making a DoorDash delivery in Austin on Sunday when his car was “sideswiped” twice by ICE officers in an unmarked truck, immigration attorney Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch told reporters earlier Monday. He was shot and taken to a hospital, she said, but was released later Sunday into ICE custody with the bullet still inside him.

Speaking by phone during a news conference, Perez had said doctors didn’t remove the bullet because it’s near his spine. He said ICE pressed for him to be released quickly from the hospital so it could move him to a detention center. He said he had received no pain medication or treatment there, and had slept on the floor, before eventually being given a “pill” by a nurse on Monday.
