If you value out National Forest you can call and ask for a vote against the Fix our Foests Act. I do not think anyone is fooled by the name they give thei. It is like the one a few years back, Healthy Forest. Our forest do not need our heavyhanded fixes.
"The U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee will vote on Tuesday, October 21 to pass the so-called "Fix Our Forests Act" (S. 1462) out of committee so the full Senate can vote on the bill.
The U.S. House passed its version of the bill this past spring, and while the Senate version is slightly different, the "Fix Our Forests Act" will dramatically change how America’s national forests will be managed, and Wilderness won't be spared.
It's imperative that you call your senators at 202-224-3121 and urge them to oppose the "Fix Our Forests Act." If you senator is on the Agriculture Committee, it's especially important that you make the call!
The "Fix Our Forests Act" will expand destructive livestock grazing in national forests, including in Wilderness. Taxpayers already heavily subsidize livestock grazing, as livestock are permitted to displace wildlife, trample streamside vegetation, and spread invasive, flammable weeds for literally just pennies a day...
The "Fix Our Forests Act" also hobbles public participation in public lands management, National Environmental Policy Act and Endangered Species Act requirements, and imposes very short timelines for judicial review and relief.
Please call your senators TODAY at 202-224-3121 and tell them:"
