A budget is a statement of moral priorities.

“Pro-life”

Trump Administration to End Protections for 58 Million Acres of National Forests Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said the Clinton-era rule barring road construction and logging was outdated and “absurd.”

This will be devastating for our environment, wildlife, and local and Indigenous communities.

These lands belong to the American people — not to polluters and private interests.

Look at this amazing sign. #NoKings #butterfly

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Watch out, Bureau of Land Management!

Plenty of gorgeous public lands managed by the BLM.

Trump to rescind Roadless Rule, ending protections for 58 million acres nationwide The proposal could open road construction and logging to about 30 percent of Forest Service land, including about 37% of Montana’s U.S. Forest Service acreage, 45% of Idaho’s and 35% of Wyoming’s. But...

Hey, if you care at all about public forests, clean water, or wildlife in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, or Wyoming - CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES, tell them to oppose the Roadless Rule Rescission, tell them to support the Roadless Rule Conservation Act!

92% of the Tongass National Forest is Roadless area.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

That’s so mean 🤣

And yet, seems more valid than pawning off the nation’s forest reserves.

Lee’s land grab is beaten back for the time being, but the idea won’t go away.

It’s going to take sustained activism from public land loyalists to foil ill intent for green space, from local to national.

NO KINGS
Be safe, be smart, and give ‘em hell.

Happy #NoKings Day, to all who celebrate!

Senate leaders just proposed legislative text for a sweeping budget bill that would mandate selling over 3 million acres of public lands. Congress must reject this bill and protect our lands and waters from lasting harm.

What they are saying: Make America Healthy Again

What they are doing:
- Removing millions from healthcare access
- Restricting vaccine access
- Slashing the budget for medical research in half

Trump’s Proposed Budget Would Cut a Major Ecology Program

The USGS ecosystems research program doesn't just study wildlife. Its researchers work on rangelands and forests, fisheries and aquaculture, and critically, wildfire.

Trump's proposed budget eliminates this program entirely, allocating $0 for 2026.

Fluoridated water at 0.7 ppm (parts per million) is NOT neurotoxic.
It DOES improve dental health & overall health.

Lead IS neurotoxic at a dose of 0.05 ppm in kids.

Good thing RFK Jr cut the CDC lead poisoning prevention team & wants to ban fluoride.

We are gonna be so much healthier, right? 🙄

This is a literal nightmare for conservation in the US. #RESIST

EXTINCTION IS FOREVER.
Here are some REAL LIVE ANIMALS, that exist in the world TODAY, that we can actually do something about protecting. Instead of recreating some genes 13,000 years from now and calling a GMO pigeon a California condor.
Let's focus on what is HERE AND NOW while we still can.

No, these are not dire wolves.
No, they did not de-extinct anything.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.
