The Boundary Waters CRA vote just passed. This is a sad day for public lands.

The Senate has sold out one of the nation's most pristine wilderness areas to a foreign mining company over the mass objection of the public.

Trump’s Interior Dept. Crafted Talking Points For Mike Lee’s Public Land Sell-Off Scheme Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said a federal land sell-off “wasn’t part of the president’s agenda" even though his staff shared research with the Utah senator.

How the Dust Bowl Led to National Grasslands, Our Most Underrated Public Lands On April 14, 1935—"Black Sunday"—a massive dust storm engulfed the southern Plains. The federal government began buying up devastated private lands, which are now public grasslands

If not, you might enjoy this history deep dive. This is one of my favorite public land stories I've written so far.

They’re trying to dismantle the US Forest Service… It’s big, ugly, unpopular, a fire risk, and completely illegal.

I’m starting to lose count of how many brazen attacks in our public lands they’ve attempted.
