Urge Congress to Stop Proposed Cuts to National Parks

  

Our national parks and public lands are among our nation’s greatest legacies—but today, they face serious threats.

This week the administration released its 2026 federal budget blueprint. The proposal includes more than $1 billion in cuts to the National Park Service and the removal of sites from the National Park System.

This would be the most severe budget cut in the Park Service’s 109-year history. Congress gets the final say in our federal budget. Urge lawmakers to protect and invest in our National Park Service!

RE: Protect the National Park Service

To 

I'm deeply concerned about the administration's proposed 2026 federal budget, which would cut more than $1 billion from the National Park Service and remove sites from the National Park System.

These proposed cuts would be the most severe in the Park Service's 109-year history, undermining the very fabric of the places Americans treasure most and that Congress intended to be protected for current and future generations.

This is not what the American people want. We love our national parks and public lands. These places are more than scenic backdrops or picturesque landscapes; they are economic engines, job creators, and spaces for community connection. Outdoor recreation supports a $1.2 trillion economy, with our national parks generating $55 billion annually for local economies and supporting 400,000 jobs, many in rural communities.

Please protect these extraordinary places. I hope you and your colleagues will work to ensure the National Park Service and other land management agencies have the funding they need to continue serving all Americans.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
