The Trump administration is moving forward with plans to repeal the Roadless Rule, putting America’s wildest forests at risk, including 2 million acres of public lands in Oregon. We have until September 21 to speak up for these forests and the Roadless Rule by submitting a public comment.
Public comments are one of the most important ways we can speak up for our public lands. But why do they matter and how do you write an effective public comment? We get these questions a lot, so we will answer them on this special Wild Wednesday webcast.
The good news is that you don’t have to be an expert to weigh in! On this webcast, Oregon Wild staff will guide you through the process of writing and submitting your public comment to defend the Roadless Rule. We’ll go over what’s at stake, what the Trump administration is proposing, how it impacts Oregon’s wildlife and wild places, and how you can make your voice heard. Join us on Wednesday, September 16 for this important webcast!
We will be raffling off a copy of Oregon’s Ancient Forests: A Hiking Guide and one of our “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.
