There’s one law standing between America and a future where every wild place you love is up for grabs. The boldest, most ambitious land protection law this country has ever written. And Utah’s senior senator is on a crusade to kill it.
It’s called the Wilderness Act. 803 places. Over 111 million acres. Bigger than California. No roads, no mines, no chainsaws, no trucks. Stronger than national park status. Stronger than monument status. The hardest line American law has ever drawn around a piece of ground.
Mike Lee’s bill carves a hundred-mile exception into it for “border infrastructure.” That zone reaches into the Boundary Waters, Glacier, Big Bend, Organ Pipe, Joshua Tree, and roughly 9.5 million acres of wilderness in between. Once one exception exists, the lobbyists line up with the next. Energy. Critical minerals. Forest health. Fire prevention. Pick your euphemism.
The people coming for it are counting on you not knowing what you stand to lose.
Read it. Share it with anyone and everyone that needs to know.
