Dear Defender of
Wildlife,

We're calling on members like you in and around Washington, D.C. to
help oppose the Forest Service's catastrophic plan to open up the
Tongass National Forest to logging!

The U.S. Forest Service recently moved forward with a devastating rule
that puts over 9 million acres of the Tongass at risk of road
construction and old-growth clear-cut logging.

This unique forest contains one of the largest intact old-growth
rainforest ecosystems in the world. It provides pristine habitat for
wildlife like wolves, Sitka black-tailed deer, bears, eagles and
northern goshawks. These species depend on intact, functioning forests
for survival - but the Forest Service's plans will wreak
havoc on the habitat these animals need to survive. Preserving the
Tongass National Forest is also critical to mitigating the worst
effects of climate change.

You can help the Tongass and its wildlife by showing up at the Forest
Service's public meeting to oppose its plan to sell out millions
of acres to logging companies. Sign up below to help us stand up to
this disastrous plan!

WHAT: Public Meeting to
Protect the Tongass National Forest!

WHEN: Thursday, November 14th, 2019, 4:30pm - 6:30pm

WHERE: Holiday Inn Washington Capitol, Congressional II Rm,
550 C St. SW, Washington, D.C. 20024

Defender of
Wildlife, we can't stand idly by
while the agency responsible for maintaining our country's forests
bows to logging interests that will devastate irreplaceable habitat
for future generations.

Defenders will provide talking points for participants eager to ask
questions to the Forest Service. Or, you can simply demonstrate
support by showing up and wearing pro-Roadless Rule buttons and
stickers provided by Defenders.

This is our best chance to oppose the Forest Service's proposal
face to face. Come out and join us as we fight back against the Trump
administration's continued assault on America's public
lands!

Sign up today!

I look forward to seeing you soon!
