It will be a scaled-back version compared to previous years, with now only the Sunrise Corridor requiring advance reservations.

Time to flood their official accounts to be sure everyone knows who is telling the story of what is truly happening.
The hits keep coming, y’all. In a new move in their continued dismantling of the National Park Service, the Trump administration, hundreds of employees were removed from their position as rangers. Employees were told Friday afternoon they were being “consolidated” to the Department of the Interior.

Anybody out there on #Hoosiersky know if one of these is planned for #Indiana highways & byways near @indiana-dunes.bsky.social National Park? If not, anyone up for crowdsourcing one or collaborating with @moreperfectunion.bsky.social to create some? #StrongerTogether @milonguerica.bsky.social

The head of FEMA was just fired, one day after telling a congressional committee that the nation needs the emergency management agency that Trump has suggested abolishing.
The agency is now without a leader three weeks before the start of hurricane season.

The Trump admin is slashing funding for life-saving LGBTQ+ health research.
These aren’t just budget cuts; they’re part of a pattern to silence, sideline, and endanger queer and trans lives.
