A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.
Here’s the biggest truth bomb: not a single Republican senator on the committee spoke out against the sale of public lands.

We commit to defending public lands, scientific research, and conservation policy, regardless of political party. Our longstanding reputation reflects this commitment, even to the detriment of our business, because the future of these birds is more important than our bottom line.
With woodcock researcher Dr. Amber Roth and soil ecologist Dr. Peter Groffman, we learn how eco-engineering by invasive worms has destroyed native landscapes, contributed to the spread of ticks and invasive plants, and more. From woodcock migration during the Ice Age to the tobacco trade.
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.
In 2024, we hit a record high for extracting crude oil on public lands, averaging 13.4 million barrels per day—the highest in history. The PLR and energy coexisted with little issue.
So, why would we do away with the PLR? And why, as a conservation-minded community, are we not angry about it?
On Tuesday, May 6th, the Senate Finance Committee will be holding their only public hearing on the budget. Let them know this budget hurts NH families and they need to do better. #NHPolitics

If she isn’t responsible enough to train a bird dog, then she isn’t responsible enough to run anything in this country.
NH farmers are the heart of our supply chains & stewards of our way of life. I've heard from farmers across NH – including Julie Davenson with the Northeast Organic Farming Association of NH – about the devastating impact that President Trump’s federal funding freeze is having on their operations.
So...they lied.
They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.
Welcome to all our new followers! 💚
Just getting warmed up.
Trump is the only president with a net negative record on public land protections—and he’s at it again. As a hunter and a member of the working class, this should piss you off.
Act accordingly.
Do not let anyone gaslight you into thinking Republicans are the party of hunting and conservation. The Great American Outdoors Act was not a Republican victory—of the 107 votes against it, 106 were Republicans and one was an Independent. The left has always upheld and created conservation policy.

Dogs vs DOGE
This is their goal. Everything else is bullshit.
This is what happens when you let a billionaire with an axe to grind take his chainsaw to our wildland firefighters. These people defend our homes. They deserve better. They deserve our respect and gratitude. wildfiretoday.com/2025/03/11/u...
No, Democrats, these little auction signs aren't it. You're acting like Wes Anderson characters who don't understand that they're in a Tarantino movie.
Today, NH GOP voted to increase your property taxes by $100 MILLION per year to subsidize private education for the wealthy.

In this episode, Gabby and AJ talk to Utah-based sage grouse expert Dave Dahlgren. As a sage grouse researcher and biologist, Dave teaches us about huge amounts of habitat sage grouse need to survive and explains human-centric issues impacting their continued existence.
I’m tired of hunting being associated with Ted Nugent rather than Aldo Leopold. But hunting culture has only itself to blame. The mediocrity of so-called “bipartisanship” perpetuates a narrative for right-wing media while ignoring that it’s all built on progressive policy. I’m working to change that
Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!
Some examples of research USGS does that is at risk with RIFs and restructuring:
- earth quake and volcano monitoring and warnings
- landslide risk assessments
- water quality testing
- wildlife conservation
- wildfire prevention and post-fire rehabilitation
- invasive species tracking
It truly is a wonderful resource. I’ve learned so much there through research in my work.
The R party has consistently lobbied against the system that made hunting a sustainable model of conservation in America. The industry helped them hijack the narrative. The truth is, its success was built on progressive policy—something they don’t want you to know. Gutting the Lacey Act? Wake up.
And most states, posturing to buy them, fully intend to turn around and sell them privately. They have not been quiet about it.
This is not a drill. This administration proved itself to be no friend of hunters last time. They say one thing and do another. The consequences of some of these actions would be irreversible and could end a 100-plus-year legacy of hunters advocating for the public trust. Behave accordingly.
