🚨 Victory: The Columbia Gorge is safe…for now.

The Senate Parliamentarian blocked the provision and public pressure helped make it happen.

The Gorge is not for sale. Not now. Not ever.

Thank you for standing with us.

HELP THE GORGE NOW: More than 22,000 acres in the Gorge would be eligible for sale, due to the BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL.

Your voice can help stop this. Contact your senators today and tell them that the Gorge is not for sale. Not now. Not ever.

Did you hear the good news? Senate Bill 5508, which appropriates Oregon’s portion of the Gorge Commission’s funding, passed.

Thank you to everyone for your submissions and consistent support. Stay tuned for a more comprehensive overview of outcomes from the legislative sessions. #gorgefriends

Victory! Thanks to your advocacy sending letters and calling Washington elected officials, the Gorge Commission was funded for 2025–27. Unfortunately, a 27% budget cut means fewer resources, but without you, we could have lost our Scenic Area’s key defender altogether.

Politicians in Skamania & Wasco Counties are trying to dismantle protections for the Gorge, and pushing false claims to do it. But they didn’t count on you fighting back. If you live in one of the counties, your voice matters most. Visit gorgefriends.org/handsoffthegorge to take action.
