In the Beaver State, 31.4 million acres of publicly owned national forest and Bureau of Land Management lands provide fish and wildlife with irreplaceable habitat. Despite the immense value of America’s public lands, special interests are working hard in favor of the Oregon public lands transfer. If the state were to take over these lands, it is indisputable that important lands would be sold off and closed to hunting, fishing, and public access.

Oregon government officials and stakeholders realize that this idea is unworkable, and they are stepping up in support of America’s public lands legacy.
