Fix the Leadership Crisis at the National Park Service — Protect Our Parks Now


Fix the Leadership Crisis at the National Park Service — Protect Our Parks Now
The Issue
The National Park Service has gone over a year without a permanent, Senate-confirmed director.
At the same time:
Thousands of staff have been fired or forced out
Proposed plans would cut the workforce by nearly 30%
The agency faces over $1 billion in budget cuts
Now, the White House has withdrawn its latest nominee, leaving the agency in continued uncertainty.
Our national parks—from Yellowstone to the Statue of Liberty—are being managed without stable leadership at a critical time.
Parks need experienced, qualified leadership focused on:
Conservation
Public access
Protecting history and natural resources
We call on:
The White House
U.S. Senate
to appoint and confirm a qualified, experienced National Park Service director immediately.
Sign to demand: fix the leadership crisis—protect our parks.
