We're urging the Bureau of Land Management to drop its plan for cutting and thinning trees in the Soda Mountain Wilderness in Oregon and instead protect the area’s wilderness character. #KeepItwild wildernesswatch.org/wilderness-wat…

"It really looks like this is Donald Trump and Elon Musk trying to party like it’s 1899,” Weiss said. “We’re returning to an era with robber barons and smokestacks and measles.” Streamlined permitting process may lead to shortcuts in environmental review. 9news.com/article/news/p…

"Birds’ respiratory systems are incredibly efficient at producing the oxygen required to fly.  But they are also more vulnerable to the effects of smoke ...". BLM & FS year-round prescribed burning kills adults and chicks with smoke, harms people too. counterpunch.org/2025/05/06/gov…

Trump and the mining industry want to bring toxic mining to the doorstep of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Write your rep and senators urge them to co-sponsor and pass the Boundary Waters Wilderness Protection and Pollution Prevention Act. —> wildernesswatch.salsalabs.org/no-mining-in-b…

The House Natural Resources Committee voted to authorize the sale of more than half a million acres of public lands to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. Call your senators: 202-224-3121 Public lands are irreplaceable and far too valuable to be sold off to fund tax cuts.

Tell your representatives not to sell our public lands. They are priceless and they are not for sale or transfer! act.biologicaldiversity.org/ygns4-3GaUCoxY…

Montanan's have been betrayed. Daines is promoting the sell off public lands to give tax cuts to the rich and Sheehy is remaining mum. dailymontanan.com/2025/06/26/pub…

Nezvik is a proponent of selling public lands. He is not the one to run the US Fish and Wildlife Service. counterpunch.org/2025/06/26/bri…

The public lands near towns etc are not only the most used. Selling of public lands on the outer borders near towns would block access to more distant public lands.

NREPA will protect pristine forestland from further attempts to sell public lands. We need it now more than ever. counterpunch.org/2025/06/26/why…
