Dear Secretary Zinke,
I was extremely disappointed to learn that you chose an executive from Delaware North to serve on your “Made in America” Outdoor Recreation Advisory Committee. Delaware North is the corporate concessionaire that trademarked the name “Yosemite National Park” and the image of Half Dome -- and is now trying to force the National Park Service to buy them back.
Our parks are not for sale. Your job is to protect our national treasures, not exploit them to benefit industry. It’s time for you to start listening to science and the American people instead of stacking your advisory committees with the same industry representatives who want to line their pockets by destroying our national treasures.
Thank you,

Why is this important?
Zinke is doing everything he can to destroy protections for our National Parks and public lands. He's once again stacking his advisory committees with corporate cronies who benefit from having influence over our public lands and wild places.
We need to send 40,000 signatures to show Zinke that our parks are not for sale. His job is to protect our national treasures, not exploit them to benefit giant corporations.
