TRUMP OFFICIALS PLAN TO STRIP PROTECTIONS FROM NEARLY 59 MILLION ACRES OF NATIONAL FORESTS
AG Secretary Brooke Rollins said the admin would begin the process of rolling back protections for millions of roadless acres in the National Forest Systen. This would include about 30% of the land in the federal system, encompassing 92% of Alaska's #TongassNationalForest, one of the last remaining intact temperate rainforests in the world.

in reply to Hawkeye • • •I only recently learned that a Wisconsin Governor Phillip said "state forestry is not a good business proposition" and in 1915 the WI Supreme Court declared Wisconsin's State Forest Reserves unconstitutional
Voters passed a referendum in 1924 to amend the state constitution to apply state funds to be for acquisition, development and preservation of forest resources.
Maybe we can convince the public we should have a constitutional amendment protecting this ?
