Hey, if you care at all about public forests, clean water, or wildlife in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, or Wyoming - CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES, tell them to oppose the Roadless Rule Rescission, tell them to support the Roadless Rule Conservation Act!

That’s so mean 🤣
And yet, seems more valid than pawning off the nation’s forest reserves.
Lee’s land grab is beaten back for the time being, but the idea won’t go away.

Senate leaders just proposed legislative text for a sweeping budget bill that would mandate selling over 3 million acres of public lands. Congress must reject this bill and protect our lands and waters from lasting harm.

The USGS ecosystems research program doesn't just study wildlife. Its researchers work on rangelands and forests, fisheries and aquaculture, and critically, wildfire.
Trump's proposed budget eliminates this program entirely, allocating $0 for 2026.

Fluoridated water at 0.7 ppm (parts per million) is NOT neurotoxic.
It DOES improve dental health & overall health.
Lead IS neurotoxic at a dose of 0.05 ppm in kids.
Good thing RFK Jr cut the CDC lead poisoning prevention team & wants to ban fluoride.
