The Trust for Public Land
Use your outside voice this Earth Month
|
Dear John,
Like you, we believe in the transformative power of nature and the outdoors. From taking an epic camping trip to visiting your neighborhood park, spending time outside delivers profound benefits. But 1 in 3 Americans don’t have a park close to home.
We can change that—but we need your help.
This Earth Month, use your outside voice: Tell your Representative to pass the Parks, Jobs, and Equity Act, a $500 million emergency investment to bring more parks to more people in more places.
This investment could
- Boost the economy: Save 100,000 at-risk jobs or create 8,000 new ones, while generating $1.37 billion in economic activity.
- Create more parks for more people: Expand park access and quality for millions of Americans.
- Improve park equity: Close the park gap for the people, neighborhoods, and communities in greatest need.
Parks and public lands need public defenders like you. Sign our petition to urge your Representative to direct $500 million for local parks today, and show that you are all in for the outdoors.
Sincerely,
Diane Regas
President and CEO
