     Wild and Scenic Rivers Bills Need Your Support


    The push to protect wild public lands and rivers in 2020 is off to a great start, with a large package of conservation bills coming together for a vote on the House Floor sometime this week! Your support is critical for this vote and we're reaching out today in the hope that you'll take a few moments to ask your reps to support this legislation using our super simple form. We make it almost too easy to take action, and after more than a decade of fighting for the Wild Olympics Wilderness and Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (H.R. 2642) we're incredibly excited to see it come up for its first vote in either chamber of Congress. This bill alone represents the greatest increase in Wild and Scenic River miles in the state of Washington since the initial round of designations when the Act itself first passed. Demonstrating robust community support is critical for this public lands and waters bill package, which contains hundreds of miles of new Wild and Scenic designations, and individually reaching out to your representative in the House is the best way to accomplish this prior to the vote.

    Thanks for taking action today!
