Take Action to Protect Our National Forests

For more than two decades, the Roadless Rule has protected much of our last remaining wild national forests—but now the U.S. Forest Service is planning to repeal the policy. One of the most significant conservation measures adopted to protect the national forests of the United States, the rule prohibits industrial logging and most roadbuilding within intact areas of our public forests while allowing for active management to mitigate fire risk, ensure community safety, and maintain healthy habitat. 

We cannot afford to lose these protections for some of our last remaining intact public lands. 

Add your name to urge the Forest Service to uphold protections for roadless areas. 

Note: Audubon will include your name and zip code in the public comment we submit to the U.S. Forest Service, and they will become part of the public record.
