Restore Funding of our Federal Lands

Our public lands can no longer afford being defunded. They are an essential part of our tourism industry and economy. Each year, millions upon millions of visitors from across the world enjoy our nation's incredible National Parks, National Forests, and National Monuments (to name a few). It is increasingly concerning to hear almost every year that these areas are being neglected of the funding that once allowed them to provide quality experiences for visitors. As we hear of more visitor centers closing, park rangers' jobs cut, and trail systems neglected of maintenance, this should be a dire concern, not only for our public lands, but for the visitors who experience them. Lastly, it should be noted that the millions of visitors that enjoy our public lands also put money into local economies (grocery stores, restaurants, gift shops, etc.) The success of these local businesses is essential to job creation and economic growth. Let's give our public lands the funding they deserve, and keep it that way.
