Tell Congress: Protect Our National Forests

The administration is fast-tracking unregulated logging on millions of acres of public lands, threatening wildlife, water, and air.

What to know:

• A recent executive order forces agencies to expand logging on 280 million acres, bypassing key environmental protections.
• Forests clean our air, filter water, and prevent wildfires — weakening protections puts ecosystems and public safety at risk.
• Tell Congress to oppose unregulated logging on public lands and protect forests, wildlife, and clean air and water.

The administration’s recent executive order directs agencies to fast-track logging projects across 280 million acres of national forests and public lands. Even worse, it sidesteps environmental laws designed to ensure that logging is done sustainably and without endangering wildlife or communities.

Forests play a critical role in biodiversity, carbon capture, air and water filtration, and wildfire prevention. Stripping away protections means more pollution, fewer safeguards against wildfires, and increased habitat destruction—including for endangered species.

This is about the future of our public lands. Once these forests are gone, they’re gone for good. Congress must act now to stop this reckless expansion of logging and hold the administration accountable to existing environmental laws. Call your representatives today.
