Friend, this Earth Day we’re witnessing something truly horrifying. |
|
|
Following orders from the Trump administration, our leaders are planning to hand over vast swaths of public lands — including national forests — to fossil fuel and commercial logging industries. |
|
|
This all comes following his order to review and alter protections for hundreds of national monuments if he deems fit. At stake are the lands we love to camp, hike, fish, hunt, and spend time on — our outdoor legacy. |
|
|
These lands tie us to nature, represent our history and cultural heritage, and are home to rural communities and Indigenous peoples who’ve stewarded them for generations. Public lands belong to the people, not corporate polluters — and they are NOT for sale. |
|
|
We’re launching a bold new campaign to STOP their land grab, and we need your help. We’ve set a goal to reach 400 donations before midnight on Earth Day (that’s today!): |
|
|
Our bold new campaign is about ratcheting up the pressure on lawmakers to oppose this destruction by MAGA politicians and corporate polluters. But we need your help to go big to win. Here’s what your gift can do: |
|
|
- Power a grassroots movement to expose Trump’s public lands grift by helping organize protests and rallies in states around the country. These attacks on public lands are wildly unpopular in blue AND red states — and we need lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to feel the heat.
- Take targeted actions to pressure Congress to protect public lands. That means making sure EVERY member of Congress is getting non-stop calls and letters from their constituents demanding protections for our lands.
- Push for action at the state level. Your support will help organize public demonstrations, including rallies at state legislatures. We’re working with partners on the ground in states around the country to demand action from state legislatures, too.
