Our Public land is at risk.
Wyoming’s budget depends too much on mineral tax revenues.
This dependence forces state lawmakers to sell out our public lands and waters to mining companies, threatening our open spaces, wildlife, and our way of life.
Development is already having a negative impact
State agencies have already agreed to allow destructive developments that threaten Wyoming’s famous mule deer and antelope migration corridors, as well as some of the nation’s last great expanses of intact sage grouse habitat.
Huge mining developments like the Jonah Field in Sublette County or the proposed Moneta Divide project in Fremont County tear apart hundreds of thousands of acres of public land, covering them with thousands of wells and crisscrossing the landscape with pipelines and go-nowhere roads.
It’s not too late to change course.
Take action now
We are calling on Wyoming lawmakers to support a plan that includes other sources of revenue to protect our public lands, our wildlife, and our way of life.
