Reposted by IU Northwest Library
The Indiana Dunes are the #1 tourist spot in the state, with >3 million annual visitors. For every $1 tax investment, it generates $38 in the local economy.

Without the hard work of federal stewards, the park's health, its visitors' experience, and economic benefits for its neighbors all suffer.
Midwest communities worry that firing of parks and forest employees will harm ecosystems, economies and education
Staff cuts at Indiana Dunes, Pullman Monument and Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie raise alarms about park operations and restoration efforts.
