🚨🚨🚨 Breaking: We’ve just heard that the U.S. Senate is going to vote on public lands selloffs as soon as TOMORROW.

Our public lands are amazing wild places, where our country’s incredible array of wildlife make their homes.

They need to be preserved, not sold off to the highest bidder. Here are three easy ways you can take action right now:

1) Call your U.S. Senators and urge them to vote for protecting our public lands. You can call the Senate at (202) 224-3121
