Defending Our Forests: Trump’s Logging Order and the Fight for Public Lands

March 19, 2025
6:00 PM Pacific

A sign declares an area of forests to be old-growth and off limits to logging. Large trees grow up in the background.

The Trump administration has launched an unprecedented attack on America’s public lands—attempting to gut environmental protections, fast-track logging, and undermine the very laws that safeguard our forests, wildlife, and communities. His latest executive order prioritizes logging industry profits over science, conservation, and the voices of the people who cherish these lands.

So how do we prevent these “Trump stumps”?

While this administration is attempting to dismantle environmental protections, he hasn’t gotten away with it yet, and we’re already fighting back. Strong public opposition, legal challenges, and holding the administration accountable to the rule of law can stop this reckless agenda.

On March 19th, join the Oregon Wild team for a webcast where we’ll break down what this order means for the Pacific Northwest, how it ties into ongoing threats like the Fix Our Forests Act, and what’s at stake for policies like the Northwest Forest Plan. We’ll also dive into how we’re taking action, and how you can get involved—whether it’s learning the basics of influencing elected leaders, ways to stand up for public lands, or mobilizing others to join the fight.

This is a critical moment for our forests. If you care about protecting old-growth, defending endangered species, and stopping the assault on our public lands, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss. Sign up now and get ready to take action!

We will be raffling off a copy of Oregon’s Ancient Forests: A Hiking Guide and one of our new “Let Nature Live. Let Nature Last” t-shirts. Tickets are $5 and are an optional purchase below. Raffle tickets not only help us continue these Wednesday presentations but also support our work safeguarding Oregon’s wildlands, wildlife, and waters.
