Support for H.R. 139, the Udall-Eisenhower Arctic Wilderness Act, which designates specified lands within Alaska in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) as wilderness and components of the National Wilderness Preservation System. Opposition to H.R. 1581, the Wilderness and Roadless Area Release Act, which would open up millions of acres of pristine protected lands to irreversible damage from development. Opposition to H.R. 1505, the National Security and Federal Lands Protection Act, which would provide the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with unfettered access and control over the public lands owned by all Americans and exempt DHS from dozens of laws intended to protect public health and the environment. Support for S. 1400, the RESTORE Act, which would ensure that the Clean Water Act fines paid by those responsible for the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster are used to help restore the Gulf environment, communities, and economy. Opposition to H.R. 1408, the Southeast Alaska Native Land Entitlement Finalization and Job Protection Act, which would grant unprecedented special rights to the Sealaska Corporation, a multi-million dollar Alaska Native Corporation (ANC), to log a significant portion of the last remaining large tree old-growth stands in the Tongass National Forest. Support for Alternative C of the Draft Comprehensive Conservation Plan/Environmental Impact Statement for the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge because it recommends Wilderness designation for the Arctic Refuges incomparable Coastal Plain Wilderness Study Area. Opposition to H.R. 3210, the Retailers and Entertainers Lacey Implementation and Enforcement Fairness (RELIEF) Act, that would be devastating to the 2008 Lacey Act amendments that helped promote global forest conservation and limit illegal logging. Opposition to H.R. 4089, the Sportsmens Heritage Act, which threatens the conservation of fish, wildlife, and habitats that benefit all Americans, including conservationists and sportsmen alike. Opposition to a land exchange to facilitate the construction of a permanent gravel road between King Cove and Cold Bay, Alaska a road that would slice through the ecological heart of the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge and sacrifice high-quality Refuge and Wilderness lands. Opposition to H.R. 2578, the Conservation and Economic Growth Act, an over-reaching assault on Americas lands and wildlife that blocks or rolls back conservation laws on federal lands, guts environmental review, and privatizes public lands. Opposition to H.R. 6091, the FY13 Department of the Interior, Environment, and related Agencies Appropriations Act, whose overall allocation is woefully insufficient to adequately fund vitally important programs that protect our environment, public lands, wildlife, air, water, cultural and historic resources, communities and their economies. Support for strengthening the Bureau of Land Managements proposed rules for hydraulic fracturing on federal lands to include pre-fracking disclosure of chemicals. Support for designation of a National Monument for the Chimney Rock Archaeological Area.

Call on USDA to publish a strong final Forest Planning Rule to protect fish, wildlife, and water supplies in our National Forests.
