Friend,

DOGE's actions are more than just political moves—they directly attack the very places we hold dear. The National Park Service (NPS) and U.S. Forest Service (USFS) are being systematically undermined, and the workers who manage these lands are being unfairly fired.

Stopping DOGE is urgent: The harm is immediate, and the consequences are severe. These actions threaten your access to our public spaces, endanger communities and ecosystems, and put critical conservation efforts at risk.

But we are not backing down. We are proud to fight back—and we need your help to ensure this fight is a success. Thanks to supporters like you, we are already launching this critical legal battle to defend our public lands, fighting back against Congress's attempts to cut budgets and offer lease sales, and rallying support nationwide. But the fight against Elon Musk and DOGE has just begun so we need your help to keep our momentum going. This is your chance to make a real, lasting impact in the fight to protect our parks, forests, and the future of our planet.

The Sierra Club has joined Campaign Legal Center, Union of Concerned Scientists, Organization of Chinese Americans, and Japanese American Citizens League to sue Elon Musk and DOGE over their devastating budget cuts and firings of federal workers. This is what we are fighting for:

🌎 Our Public Lands: National parks, forests, and public spaces you love are facing severe cuts, putting their beauty, accessibility, and ecosystems at risk. Pitch in now >>>

👥 Workers in Jeopardy: Thousands of NPS/USFS employees—key to conservation and management—are being unfairly fired, leaving critical projects and safety at risk. Pitch in now >>>

⚠️ Breaking Trust: DOGE and Musk are violating agreements that protect our parks and workers, threatening the future of our public lands. Pitch in now >>>

We're ready to take this fight to court, but we need your support today to make sure we have the resources to win. This is your opportunity to stand up for the future of our parks and forests—and make sure the voices of millions of Sierra Club members and supporters are heard loud and clear.
