Last night, Senator Mike Lee backed down and reversed his attempt to strip national park and public land protections from the Interior Appropriations bill.
This is real progress and it happened because people spoke up. Park advocates raised their voices, flooded Senate offices, and made it clear that selling off or weakening public lands is unacceptable.
That said, this fight isn’t fully over. The Senate recessed before voting, and we have to stay alert in case this threat resurfaces.
This is what collective action looks like!
