As expected, the Trump administration announced its plans to rescind the Roadless Area Conservation Rule but, until a public comment period comes, all we can do is prepare and wait, right? Well, we can also tell our members of congress to support the Roadless Area Conservation Act, making Roadless protections law. What’s the difference? The rule seems to get rescinded or reinstated every time the administration changes because that’s the way administrative rulemaking works; the legislative process requires a lot more consensus. We think Roadless protections are so important we’ll be happy to have them as a rule or an act and it’s actually pretty easy to contact your senators and representative(s) with our commenting tool below.
