CALL TO ACTION: Save Our Forests! NO on HR2936

Action needed. The House Agricultural Committee just approved the "Resilient Federal Forests Act (HR2936) and it could go to a full House vote any day. This legislation sets arbitrary limits on the Endangered Species Act, overrides Cascade-Siskiyou's National Monument status, permits a huge number of logging projects to go forward without environmental review and much much more. We cannot let this happen to our national forests! Please stand with conservation groups in the region to demand a NO VOTE.

Please make sure that your representative knows that we value our forests, our national monuments and the Endangered Species Act. Please ask them to VOTE NO on HR2936.

EMAILS: Contact forms for your Representative HERE. Write, in your own words, why you want him or her to vote NO on HR2936 or copy and paste the following:

I urge you to VOTE NO ON HR2936 (The Resilient Federal Forests Act). This law would put our forests at risk to clearcutting, circumvents the Endangered Species Act, threatens biodiversity and watersheds, and threatens National Monuments by rescinding that designation for the Cascade-Siskiyou monument. I care about our national forests as an avid hiker, wildlife watcher and photographer. Please VOTE NO ON HR2936.
