Today, the Department of the Interior announced mass firings of more than 2,300 public servants at the Department of the Interior, including the Bureau of Land Management, which manages nearly 23 million acres of federal public lands in Utah. Below is a statement from SUWA Wildlands Director Neal Clark.

“Today’s firing of hundreds of staff at the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is a significant blow to how remarkable public lands and resources in Utah will be managed. Already woefully understaffed and under-resourced, today’s decisions is a self-fulfilling prophecy to downgrade the protection and management of Utah’s redrock country, all while furthering the bogus argument that state or private companies could do a better job of ‘managing’ federal public lands.

“Federal employees, such as those who work for the BLM, make up a large percentage of the workforce in rural Utah. For example, government employees (including but not limited to federal employees) make up 23% of the workforce in Garfield County and 25% in Wayne County. It’s plain to see that the Trump administration could care less about the federal workforce that makes our nation run and the Americans who all benefit from their service.”

Yesterday, Congresswoman Celeste Maloy (UT-02) and Congressman Russ Fulcher (ID-01) re-introduced the Western Economic Security Today (WEST) Act. This federal legislation would require the Director of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to withdraw the recently finalized Public Lands Rule. Among other things, the Rule reiterates that conservation is part of the BLM’s multiple-use mission and ensures that the agency will manage for this use on a day-in and day-out basis. Above is a statement from SUWA DC Director, Travis Hammill.

One month ago we rallied for Love, Land & Hope and to ask Governor Cox to stop his attacks on public lands. Folks showed up and filled out nearly 500 postcards with their personalized messages which we then mailed to the Governor.

It's not too late to take action! Head to the link in our bio to take action now. Whether you live in Utah or nationwide, you can help by putting pressure on our representatives! Keep showing up. Keep speaking out. We must let our reps know THESE LANDS ARE NOT FOR SALE.
