PC2A for All States to write YOUR own REPS about HJRes46 which allows for Drilling in National Parks
EXPLANATION:
Statement by Nicholas Lund, Senior Manager of National Parks Conservation Association’s Conservation Programs: “These challenges are direct attacks on America’s national parks. Each of these rules provides the commonsense protections for national parks that millions of Americans demand. If the Park Service’s drilling rules are repealed, national parks across the country would be subjected to poorly regulated oil and gas drilling, threatening parks’ air, water and wildlife. These attempts to weaken protections put our parks at risk. And by using the Congressional Review Act process, Congress is forever tying the hands of the agencies charged with protecting America’s favorite places. If Congress wants to protect national parks for future generations, it must reject these challenges.”
