There is a major divergence happening right now between Democrats and Republicans in Congress about how to protect our old-growth forests - which account for 34% of the world’s primary forests.
SEEC Members have sent a letter to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack supporting a nationwide forest plan amendment and urging bolder moves to protect our national forests, while Republicans are trying to kill it. Will you add your name to our petition to protect old-growth forests?
Our SEEC Members in Congress have been advocating for stronger protections for old-growth areas, urging the Biden administration to provide clear guidance on managing and monitoring the recruitment of new old-growth forests.
Meanwhile, Republicans are questioning the Biden administration's efforts, with an eye towards promoting timber production in these old-growth forests. (The irony here is real, because the number one idea Republicans have for stopping the climate crisis is to plant more trees).
Thanks to your help in 2022, SEEC PAC was able to re-elect over 95% of our pro-environment members to the U.S. House of Representatives — defying the odds on a night where Democrats lost seats. Now we are counting on you to help our SEEC members pass climate, clean energy and environmental justice policies in the 118th Congress while we continue fighting for a sustainable future.
