Democratic
Conservation Alliance - Our national parks turn 110 today. On August 25th,
1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act into law, creating the
National Park Service with a bold mission:
“To conserve the
scenery, natural and historic objects, and wild life… and to provide for their
enjoyment in such manner… as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of
future generations.”
And since then, our parks have
been one of our country's greatest treasures. But today, Donald Trump and MAGA
Republicans — fueled by Big Oil, extremist beliefs, and corporate greed — are
dismantling that promise piece by piece.
They’re slashing park funding, dismantling protections for endangered species, letting fossil fuel giants damage raze forests, and selling off public lands to the highest bidder. We cannot let them destroy what generations before us fought to protect. Contribution
