ACTION ALERT: Public lands are under attack, again. 📣

Bureaucrats in D.C. want to let the highest bidders bulldoze roads through America’s protected wild forests.

But when Americans stand together to protect our public lands, we win. Let’s tell U.S. Department of Agriculture Sec. Brooke Rollins: We won’t let you destroy our forests with disastrous logging and mining roads.

Act now: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FS-2025-0001-223869
