Steal My Email Script to Contact Your Senator: Public Lands Are NOT For Sale
Updated June 28, 2025 to reflect most recent language in the bill
Subject: Keep Our Public Lands in Public Hands
Dear Senator {Last Name},
As your constituent, I’m writing to urge you to oppose the final version of the budget bill that sells off our public lands..
This mandates the sale of up to 1.2 million acres of public land managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) over the next 10 years. These sales would target lands within five miles of any town with 1,000 or more people, opening the door to widespread privatization near hundreds of communities across the West.
These are some of the most accessible and beloved public lands in the country. They offer affordable opportunities for hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, and accessing local trails. They are also a vital habitat for wildlife, protect clean water, and hold sacred cultural significance for Indigenous nations.
This final bill requires no environmental review, no public input, and only minimal consultation before these lands are sold. It even allocates $15 million in taxpayer money to make the sell-off happen. This is unacceptable and will have lasting negative impacts on our environment, recreation, and way of life.
As your constituent, I urge you to oppose this provision and protect our public lands for current and future generations.
Thank you,
{Your Name}
