Think back to last week, which in today's society feels like ages ago. But at the time, I told you that your representatives had voted, in secret, to sell off your public lands. At the time, it was 11,000 acres in Nevada and Utah which, in itself, would be cause for alarm, as this administration and its administrators have been hell-bent on selling off whatever they could, or at least laying the groundwork to do just that.
But that's all changed as, in a last-second change, the original 11,000 acres has jumped to a staggering 500,000 acres of public lands that we all use to recreate on.
This isn't cause for concern, it's cause for outrage. It's also cause for everyone to fill your representative's email inboxes, mailboxes, fax machines, and however else you can reach them to demand they halt these actions. Because if we don't, they're bound to not just go through with this sell-off to the highest bidder, they'll do it again and again in states across the country.
