Action Alert: Senate Prepares To Vote On Pubic Lands Legislation
The US Senate will soon vote on the Great American Outdoors Act, a strong bipartisan bill which touts Senator Manchin as a lead sponsor and Senator Capito as a co-sponsor. Now is the time to contact Senators Manchin and Capito to encourage their continued leadership and support of the Act.
The Great American Outdoors Act ensures that the Land and Water Conservation Fund would receive full program funding each year without going through a drawn-out appropriations process which often leaves it underfunded. LWCF is a highly effective program which supports the development of recreation and conservation projects.
Additionally, the Great American Outdoors Act would provide $9.5 billion over the next 5 years to address the maintenance backlog plaguing our nation’s public lands.
Act Now: Tell Senators Manchin and Capito that you support the Great American Outdoors Act. Encourage them to vote “yes” on the Act when it goes before the Senate. Send a message here.
