They’re already using wildfire as the pretext to open protected lands to industrial-scale logging. And Congress is about to hand them the Fix Our Forests Act (FOFA).

The tl;dr: is that Trump is attacking public lands again and this bill would protect their illegal logging and destruction of 250,000 acres of forests and hand the profits over to his favorite logging CEO cronies

This bill would protect them from lawsuits, revision, review, environmental impact assessments and block all public comment

Basically, if your senator votes for this bill you can kiss our national forests goodbye. They'll be gone

They. Will. Be. Gone.

This bill is unbelievable. It's brazen. We've never had a federal government so hell-bent on squeezing every single dollar out of every acre

Ok here's what you need to do,

- follow the instructions in the article to see how your senators have been voting. There's an email template to fill out and send

- call them

There’s currently a bill making its way through congress called the Fix Our Forests Act, though in all reality, the bill aims to totally fuck our forests.

🌲 Take action below!

FOFA is designed to make it easier for private companies to log more public forests in ecologically irresponsible ways that’s disguised as “wildfire strategy”, with clear origins rooted in misinformation and fear, instead of facts about forest ecology and the real causes of those fires.

Despite having flashy language about biodiversity and healthy forest management, it would essentially allow large areas of our public forests to be logged without discretion with absolutely no input from the public, no monitoring, recording or protections for endangered species, and without any input or signoff from scientific panels that determine what healthy stand structure and composure should look like. By excluding these aspects of management, FOFA reduces the amount of jobs provided, while also making no efforts for increasing jobs in the logging industry.

We have decades of hard science clearly showing the negative impacts of clearcutting and aggressive industrial logging in all our forests that come in the form of loss of carbon storage, biodiversity, resilience to wildfire, drought, landslides and sedimentation of streams that destroys salmon runs, as well as job losses and community collapse through commercial over-harvesting…and yet this bill aims to increase the ability for private logging companies to destroy our public forests with virtually no oversight or accountability.

FOFA doesn’t invest in the best solutions or do enough to protect our communities, and yet it has recently passed the House and is at risk of making its way through the Senate. If it passes, it will solidify some truly awful logging practices into legislation at a time when we need management practices backed by science and facts more than ever.

TAKE ACTION: Call and write to your senator using the tool in our bio and tell them to not support the Fix Our Forests Act for the sake of our forests, the communities that depend on them, and the future we all share!
