The Systematic Dismantling of 245 Million Acres of Public Lands with the Conservation Lands Foundation - Public Lands News (Oct 20 - 24)
Description
After a week off from our public lands news round-up, we are back with more updates as attacks on public lands continue despite the government shutdown.
The government shutdown has many impacts on our public lands, ranging from our National Parks and Forest Service to the Bureau of Land Management. While we spend a lot of time talking about our parks, BLM lands don’t often get as much attention.
In this episode, we focus on how BLM lands are changing in the short- and long-term amid the ongoing government shutdown.

- Todd Tucci, Senior Attorney, Advocates For The West
