SPECIAL - Don't Let Congress Sell Our Public Lands

Ross Izard Season 4 Episode 1

Well, it happened. DC politics have collided with our time in the woods, and that means we've gotta talk about it (even if we'd rather not).

In this special--and urgent--episode, Ross talks about a provision in the U.S. Senate GOP's budget reconciliation bill that would mandate the sale of millions of acres of federal land--the same land we use to hike, camp, and fly fish. 

You can read more about the proposal and find a map of the lands potentially up for sale from The Wilderness Society here

This bill is moving quickly. Now is the time to speak up for the places you love. If you'd like to contact your congresspeople, you can do so through the digital advocacy campaigns below or by looking them up yourself here

This is our national identity, our heritage. Don't sit this one out.
