Dear John,

Our public lands are at risk. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) plans to offer
thousands of acres of land in Montana for oil and gas leasing. Take action to stop it from selling off our public lands.

This lease sale would allow the land to be exploited for oil and gas
development. It could destroy habitats for threatened wildlife like elk and mule
deer.

Protecting sensitive lands from oil and gas activity is essential to protecting
wildlife -- and we need your help. Will you send a comment now to stop oil and
gas leasing in Montana?

Demand the Bureau of Land Management stop the lease sale in Montana and protect
threatened wildlife.

and air, which could compromise the health of local communities.

The extracted wastewater from fracking can be radioactive and its disposal
through injection wells has proven to increase earthquakes. Exposure to fracking has been linked to numerous health issues, ranging from
heart problems to childhood leukemia.

The decision for the BLM to move forward with this lease sale while communities
are still grappling with the global pandemic is reckless and irresponsible. We
need you to take action to demand it cancel the lease sale to protect people and
the planet.

Take Action: Stop the BLM from handing over public lands to Big Oil.

[[link removed]]If the fossil fuel industry is allowed to drill on these Montana lands, the
impact on people and the environment will extend far beyond the state border. It
will add to the climate crisis, when we are already less than 10 years away from
catastrophe.

To avert the worst impacts of climate change, the biggest thing we can do is
keep fossil fuels in the ground. There is no excuse for leasing public lands to the fossil fuel industry rather
than transitioning to clean, just, renewable energy.

John, will you join us and demand that the BLM put
wildlife, people, and the planet ahead of the oil and gas industries? People
power can delay and cancel lease sales, but the BLM will only act if it feels
pressured from people like you.

Take a stand for our planet. Tell the BLM to protect people and wildlife over
Big Polluter profits.
