America’s plentiful public lands make our country unique.

In all corners of the nation, parks, refuges, and monuments support local ecosystems and economies alike.

On National Public Lands Day, we recommit to protecting these precious resources.

Wishing all those celebrating in the Virgin Islands a happy, healthy and sweet new year.

Shanah Tovah U'metukah!

The 1963 March on Washington saw hundreds of thousands of people gather in our nation’s capital, demanding an end to segregation and discrimination.

Parks and recreational spaces are essential to healthy and sustainable communities in the Virgin Islands and across the country.

This National Park and Recreation Month, we’ll keep working so our parks are accessible and enjoyable for all.

Follow the money.

Republicans' "efficiency" bill? A $43 BILLION grift to private contractors.

Example: Forcing states to pay Equifax $360 MILLION every month to verify employment data.

Experts call it "welfare for Deloitte."

This isn't efficiency—it's organized graft.

House Republicans' Big Beautiful Bill only benefits the wealthy—not the 16 million who'd lose healthcare, 4.5 million who'd lose food assistance, or the third of Virgin Islanders living in poverty.

We cannot let this happen.

On June 19, 1865, news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas.
