Stop new USDA head Brooke Rollins from devastating our National Forests to find new oil & rare minerals, using a straw man “Forest fire emergency” to do so.
* In an Emergency Order, USDA head Brooke Rollins opened 59% of National Forests to logging & stripped protections on federal lands in NV + NM for mineral extraction.
* Rollins founded the America First Policy Institute, a behind-the-scenes think tank pushing for fossil fuel expansion on public lands & has quietly embedded its agenda in the White House. Never heard of AFPI? That's by design.
* Rollins is unqualified to lead the USDA. She called ethanol a "national security threat" & farm subs "corporate welfare." She has deep ties to Big Oil + her hubby runs 2 oil companies.
Please do not allow this irreversible damage to be done to our beautiful country! All Americans are proud of our vast public lands, and we need to keep them unexploited and held in public trust for future generations.
