061226 Public Lands are Not for Sale (Sierra Club)


America's public lands are under the most serious assault in a generation.

Trump and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum have made their agenda clear: open up our national parks, monuments, and wilderness areas to corporate polluters and private developers. They're already pushing to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and have fired thousands of federal workers who steward our forests, parks, and wildlife refuges.

Trump wants to bulldoze his border wall through Big Bend National Park. Senator Mike Lee is pushing to crack open Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument to uranium mining. And Congress is advancing a plan that would hand the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness over to a foreign mining conglomerate for toxic sulfide ore mining.

These are not isolated attacks. They are part of a coordinated effort to give away what generations of Americans have fought to protect.

Add your name to Sierra Club’s petition to tell Congress: keep public lands public. No wall through Big Bend. No mining in Grand Staircase-Escalante. No toxic drilling in the Boundary Waters.
