The Land and Water Conservation Fund should be appropriately allocated to communities across the country, improving open spaces for folks to get outside and supporting our outdoor recreation economy. The Land and Water Conservation Fund has a history of serving an important role in improving public access to many premier fisheries and wild places on our public lands. The fund is one of the most important conservation tools we have and doesn’t cost tax payers a dime. However, it’s in danger of expiring in September unless Congress takes action.
I appreciate Sen. Gardner’s support of this conservation and access success story, and I urge him to lead his Senate colleagues to the same conclusion that he has reached – that LWCF should be permanently reauthorized.
