The U.S. Forest Service is not part of the national parks system—part of its mission pertains to responsible use of natural resources like logging and mining—but they have many amazing places under their protection. If the USFS is comprised, the National Park Service is that much closer to privatization and exploitation. Contact your congressperson now and tell them to preserve ALL of America's natural spaces.
