If you live in Maine:

Please send Congresswoman Pingree a message via the button below.

Congresswoman Pingree is the Ranking Member of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies, which controls the U.S. Forest Service’s budget — and is therefore a very powerful voice on this issue.

In your message, please let Congresswoman Pingree know that everyone is counting on her to continue to lead on this issue by urging her to speak out about the critical importance of safeguarding mature and old-growth federal forests.

You can also call her office using the telephone number listed below. Thank you!

Congresswoman Pingree’s Office — (202) 225-6116

If you live in Vermont:

Please send your delegation a message via the buttons provided.

In your message, please let Senator Sanders, Senator Welch or Congresswoman Balint know that everyone across the country is counting on New England’s leadership on environmental issues — and that the federal forests in Vermont are not for sale.

Urge them to raise awareness about the threats facing our National Forests by speaking out about the egregious ‘Telephone Gap’ logging project in the Green Mountain National Forest.

As Senator Sanders agreed back in 2021, “Allowing logging of mature and old federal forests should become a practice of the past.”

Or call Sen. Sanders’ office — (202) 224-5141

Or call Rep. Balint’s office — (202) 225-4115

Or call Sen. Welch’s office — (202) 224-4242

I urge the President to rescind the March 1, 2025 Executive Order ‘Immediate Expansion of American Timber Production — and to instead end old-growth logging on U.S. public lands by managing our treasured National Forests in a manner that would ‘best meet the needs of the American people.’
