Friend, Trump rolled back nearly 100 environmental protections during his first term. He opened public lands to drilling, shrank National Monuments, allowed the destruction of vital habitats, and removed the gray wolf from the endangered species list. These actions significantly weakened safeguards for our national parks, forests, and wildlife refuges, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation–and we can expect he will do these things again.
Project 2025 tells us exactly what Trump plans to do–taking away public lands by reducing protections for national monuments and opening sensitive areas like the Arctic Refuge and Tongass Forest to drilling, logging, and mining. If passed, it would devastate sacred sites, ecosystems, and wildlife habitats across the country.
If we don't act, this reckless exploitation will utterly destroy fragile ecosystems and undo years of hard-fought conservation progress.
Block harmful land sales and protect our public lands from exploitation. Trump's allies are already seeking to use the courts to seize control of millions of acres of public lands in the West to sell off to their Big Oil funders. Pitch in now >>>
Push for stronger climate policies to reduce emissions and protect vital ecosystems. Our federal teams and attorneys are ready to push back against this administration, while we also capitalize on state election wins to advance key legislation. Pitch in now >>>
Fight for a future where public lands are protected, preserving wildlife and helping combat climate change. Trump's anti-conservation allies have put targets on threatened wildlife and will ramp up those attacks in his second term. Pitch in now >>>
I've seen the impact we can make when we work together, and I know how much you care about our future. We can protect public lands and ensure they remain preserved for generations to come. Thank you for your generosity and commitment to this fight.
With determination,
