The Public Lands Alliance (PLA) authored the letter below that was sent March 7th to the Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum, along with the acting-Directors of the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, and the Fish & Wildlife Service.
Seven other organizations joined PLA on the letter asking for an immediate pause in the termination of federal leases by the Department of the Interior and to speak up for our members who are exposed to grave and direct impacts. It is as important now as ever to keep lines of communication open between partner agencies and other groups about the important work of our members and volunteers.
Thank you to those groups that joined and to the PLA members that continue to share critical feedback on impacts. Please continue sending those in and feel free to cite the letter in any of your conversations.
