This bill would clear-cut forests, hurt endangered species, harm communities’ drinking water, worsen deadly wildfires, and make the climate crisis worse. But it's under disguise.

Dear Green American,
Stand up against environmentally destructive policies.
Congress is considering a bill that would undermine forest and endangered species protections, harm communities’ drinking water, worsen deadly wildfires and make climate change worse.
In January, Representatives Bruce Westerman and Scott Peters reintroduced H.R. 471, the so-called Fix Our Forests Act (FOFA). This bill would roll back critical environmental laws, such as the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and National Historic Preservation Act. The Senate is now considering this damaging legislation.
Despite its name and supposed attempt to mitigate wildfire risk, the bill is nothing more than more corporate giveaways that weaken environmental protections, expose our forests to clear-cut logging, stifles the public’s voice, and will make climate change even worse. On top of that it diverts resources that could be used for wildfire defense away from the communities that need them the most.
We need your help to defeat this legislation. Contact your Senators and tell them to oppose the Fix Our Forests Act.
TAKE ACTION
Thanks for all you do,
