This is not normal.

The current administration has launched an unprecedented assault on America's public lands. National monuments are being reviewed for shrinkage. Oil and gas leases are being fast-tracked on previously protected land. The agencies that manage these places are being gutted from the inside.

This isn't a policy disagreement. This is a fire sale.

We built the Threatened Public Lands Map to make it impossible to look away. Every active threat to every major federal public land in the country, tracked and documented. Because the only thing worse than what's happening is nobody knowing it's happening.
