John, Trump is planning to lay off 30% of the National Park Service – just in time for summer. That means trash pileups and reduced park safety, staining the beauty of our cherished public lands and the honorable work of NPS workers.
These noble employees have devoted their careers to educating millions of visitors on the beauty of our natural parks and keeping them safe and clean. They weren’t doing it for the money: it was a labor of love – and Trump is punishing them for it.
This round of firings won’t save the taxpayer money. Not only does the National Park Service account for only 1/15 of 1% of the federal budget, but this short sighted decision will only drive down revenue – after all, who wants to go to a poorly-kept national park?
SEEC members have been fighting for our national parks for a long time, and we’re not stopping now. Climate champion and SEEC Co-Chair Rep. Mike Quigley is a staunch advocate for national parks and the workers who protect them – he leads the annual Climate Change in Our National Parks tour, which educates members of Congress and the public on how climate disasters threaten these lands. From opposing these drastic funding cuts to pushing for climate regulation – we are working nonstop to save our national parks.
