The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:

An aerial view of Metarvik, Alaska, a small village of several dozen buildings in the middle of a vast snowy expanse.

This is Mertarvik, Alaska, population 300. It’s a new town.

Its residents, the vast majority of whom are Yup’ik, began moving in around 2019.

The move was by necessity: The nearby village where many residents previously lived, Newtok, is sinking, its riverbanks eroding. THREAD 🧡

Communities aren’t staying silent about ICE…

18-year-old Massachusetts high school student Marcelo Gomes was taken by ICE on his way to volleyball practice Saturday morning. No word on where he’s being held.

Marcelo missed graduation today, so Milford HS graduates marched to rally in solidarity.
