The corporate takeover of our government under Republicans and Donald Trump makes me sick. And their new plan to sell off America’s precious natural resources to Trump’s campaign donors and profiteers has my stomach turning.

Tell the Department of the Interior: Stop the privatization of national parks.

Reporters recently uncovered a shady scheme hatched by recently-ousted Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and national park profiteers, the RV and hospitality industries, and enemies of public lands to privatize national park campgrounds, allow commercialized food trucks and other services at parks, limit benefits for seniors and increase prices.

This plan would be a massive giveaway to corporate interests and Trump donors who stand to profit from national park privatization. We must speak out now to stop it.

Privatizing America's national parks is another example in a long line of actions by the Trump administration to hand over public lands to private interests and donors, whether it's the fossil fuel industry, mining companies or corporate food and lodging. According to Western Values Project Deputy Director Jayson O’Neill, 'Privatizing America’s public campgrounds and jacking up national park fees to appease big-business concessionaires and powerful corporate campaign donors is just the latest egregious attempt to rip public lands out of public hands.'3

ADD YOUR NAME: Stop Trump from privatizing our national parks!

Thanks,

Mike Phelan
