The Trump administration has repeatedly acted to weaken protections for our public lands and sell them to the highest bidder. They have repealed longstanding regulations for both land and wildlife protection; expedited approval processes for logging, mining, and drilling; and reorganized federal agencies to weaken oversight and management. Over 175 million acres of U.S. land are now at risk of sale or destruction. The Trump administration views our public lands as property they can greedily hand off to the fossil fuel industry and other private enterprises for profit. Demand your representatives repeal the reckless provisions in H.R. 1 that have supercharged the sale of our public lands. These beloved lands are for the American people, not drillers, polluters, and corporations. I am a constituent from Merritt Island, FL. I have major concerns about the Trump administration’s mismanagement, destruction, and sale of our public lands. I ask that you: — oppose the reorganization of the U.S. Forest Service, which will weaken the agency’s ability to protect our national forests; (and) — repeal the H.R. 1 provisions that have supercharged the sale of our public lands to oil and gas companies; — oppose the repeal of regulations that protect our lands and wildlife from mining, drilling, and logging. It is your responsibility to safeguard our public lands & I hold you accountable for doing so.
