Our state parks, forests, beaches and reservations are suffering from years of underfunding. We're working to convince state leaders to reinvest in our parks system, hire more staff and rangers, and fund much-needed maintenance projects. Read more.

Sign the petition: To Secretary Vilsack: I urge you to put a halt to Bush-era plans to allow the timber, mining, coal and oil industries into our pristine national forests. I support full restoration of Clinton-era protections to nearly 60 million acres of roadless national forests under the Roadless Area Conservation Rule. Yet as current U.S. Forest Service officials move ahead with Bush-era plans to allow logging, mining and drilling in forests in Alaska, Colorado, Idaho and Oregon, I urge you to take immediate action to stop the destruction before it's too late.
