Our country's national parks are essential to the communities that surround them. They house vital ecosystems, fascinating wildlife, beautiful views, and family-friendly programs that help people of all ages and abilities appreciate nature.

But national parks need our help. They're facing multiple critical issues, and if we want them to be enjoyed for generations to come, we've got to take action now.

Are you in? Sign now to tell Congress to preserve our national parks immediately >>

Multiple factors threaten America's national treasures, but some of the most significant are:

  • Climate Change: Rising temperatures and changing weather patterns impact ecosystems, threaten species, and increase the frequency and intensity of wildfires and storms, wreaking havoc on our parks.
  • Underfunding: After years of budget cuts, our national parts have a $12 billion maintenance backlog, meaning trail repairs to historical preservation efforts have been halted.
  • Increased Visitation: Millions of Americans visit national parks each year, which is great, but causes wear and tear on park infrastructure and there's no money for repairs.

We are calling on Congress to take these comprehensive steps towards preserving our national parks for the future:

  1. Address the Maintenance Backlog: Work to allocate sufficient funding to repair and maintain park infrastructure and ensure our parks are safe and accessible parks for all.
  2. Enhance Conservation Efforts: Secure funding for programs to protect and restore the valuable ecosystems and wildlife of our parks.
  3. Support Climate Resilience: Develop and prioritize projects that mitigate the effects of climate change on our national parks.
  4. Improve Visitor Services: Enhance facilities and services to manage the impact of increasing visitation and provide educational opportunities for all visitors.

Sign the petition: Prioritize our national parks – they need robust protection, thoughtful management, and dedicated resources.
