April 9

I am writing as a deeply concerned constituent regarding the recent decision to allow logging in our national forests under the current administration. This policy not only jeopardizes the integrity of our public lands, but it also threatens vital ecosystems, wildlife habitats, and the quality of life for communities that depend on these natural resources. National forests are a cherished public treasure—providing clean air, water, and opportunities for recreation, as well as serving as a legacy for future generations. Allowing logging without stringent protections undermines our national commitment to conservation and sustainable land management, and it represents a reckless exploitation of our natural heritage for short-term gain. I urge you to take immediate action to reverse this policy. Please work to support legislation that protects our national forests from destructive logging practices and upholds our environmental values. Our collective future depends on safeguarding these irreplaceable resources. Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and to seeing decisive action taken to protect our public lands
