    “This is the wrong decision for our climate future, for protecting biodiversity, and for honoring frontline communities. Let’s be clear: rampant oil and gas development on our nation’s public lands must stop now. We will keep fighting the Willow project.” bit.ly/3YI7Yiy

    Arctic protections need to fulfill @POTUS commitments to climate, biodiversity, and frontline communities. We stand w/ millions of climate allies speaking out to #StopWillow & will not back down until the Arctic is protected once and for all.

    *BREAKING* The Biden administration is suspending oil and gas leases in the Arctic Refuge, an important step to protect these sacred lands. But there’s still more work to be done to restore protections for good. #ProtectTheArctic #StandWithTheGwichin

    Thank you @SenJeffMerkley! Logging and roads don't belong in our wildest forests. Period. We need to keep Roadless Rule protections in place in the Tongass National Forest. #ProtectTheTongass. #SaveRoadless

    Drilling in the Arctic Refuge means violating the rights of Indigenous Peoples. That should be enough to halt any oil projects in this sacred place. #StandWithTheGwichin #ProtectTheArctic @OurArcticRefuge
    This is our birthright
