UPDATE: Today the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee was passed and Sen. Lee’s amendment to include the Roadless Rule repeal was adopted on party lines. Next up the bill will be up for full Senate consideration. There’s currently no timeline for when the bill will be on the floor — so stay tuned.

In the meantime, please keep up the pressure on your Senators to vote NO on any legislation that repeals the 2001 Roadless Rule!

----------------------

URGENT: Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) is at it again. He's proposed an amendment to S.140, the Wildfire Prevention Act, that nullifies the 2001 Roadless Rule.

The Roadless Rule, established in 2001, protects roadless forests by keeping them free from logging, road-building, and other industrial development.

These lands — nearly 45 million acres of national forests — are some of the most intact, connected wildlife habitats left in the United States.

Senator Lee's amendment threatens to tarnish these lands forever. He claims repealing the Roadless Rule will help prevent wildfire, but it won't. 

The Senate Energy Natural Resources Committee will vote on this tomorrow. 

We urgently need people to tag their Senators here and call their offices right now urging them to vote NO on any legislation that would nullify the 2001 Roadless Rule. 

Call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to be transferred to the Senate office. 

The vote is TOMORROW, Wednesday June 10th. Please share this post and call your senator now!
