Dear Friend of the National Parks,

The results are in -- Joe Biden is projected to be our 46th president. And that could mean big changes for the national parks we love.

Four years of relentless attacks on our public lands have left many of our most treasured places in need of immediate relief. We must start working right away to undo the damage that has been done to our parks and the commonsense safeguards that protect them.

NPCA has a plan ready to make that happen.

Send a message to President-Elect Biden now and tell him to prioritize national parks in his administration -- starting with the appointment of a full-time Director for the National Park Service!

The National Park Service has been without a Director for the entirety of the current administration. If President-Elect Biden is serious about protecting national parks, he must start by immediately putting someone at the helm.

But it goes beyond that crucial position. The current administration began with an assault on national monuments, resulting in massive cuts to Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante — and it didn’t stop there. Public lands surrounding parks have been auctioned for oil and gas drilling with reckless speed. Protections against air pollution like methane and haze have been relentlessly rolled back.

This is where our work begins. Along with park champions from both sides of the aisle, we will do whatever it takes to restore every park protection that has been cut or weakened over the past four years.

It starts with the National Park Service. Tell President-Elect Biden that national parks need leadership on Day One of his administration!

Even during these difficult years, you've shown time and again that national park lovers know how to find common ground and win tough fights. You secured a major victory with the recent, bipartisan Great American Outdoors Act, helped win landmark victories to protect Yellowstone grizzlies, and defended Canyonlands from drilling.

Send your message now, so we can be sure that the work of protecting parks in the new administration will start off strong -- and never slow down.

Thank you for everything you do for our parks.

Sincerely,



Theresa Pierno
President & CEO
