*[Enwl-eng] Trump wants to turn our beautiful lands into profit centers

[ENWLine]

 

Trump wants to install Wi-fi in our national parks instead of protecting their natural beauty and health! Sign Now Vladimir, In October 2019, we were shocked to learn of the Trump's administration's hopes to privatize the United States' national parks. Expensive distractions like Wi-fi throughout the parks, amusement park-like concessions, and even stripping senior citizens of their discounts during the peak season were proposed. The plan sought to "rip public lands out of public hands," said Jayson O'Neill, deputy director of the Western Values Project. The changes would be expensive, and almost certainly result in raised admission prices. Everyone, no matter their income or privilege, should have access to these beautiful places. Luckily, environmental organizations and activists like you prevailed in getting the proposal shut down in a matter of months. But that does not mean that our national parks are safe. The National Parks Service (NPS) is facing a whopping 12 billion dollar maintenance backlog, and decreased admission due to the current pandemic is not helping. This administration needs to provide financial relief to the NPS instead of letting it die and then privatizing it for its own gain. Sign the petition today! Thank you,   Lauren W. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. We can't let Trump turn our national parks into one of his many failed businesses. Sign the petition today.
