Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley will be hosting a number of town halls in the coming days. It is inevitable that the issue of the armed take-over of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) will come up at these meetings, and it is important that those who care about our national public lands stand up.
See below for a schedule of these town halls and let your Senators know that you outraged by the seizure of the Malheur NWR, opposed to the disposal of national public lands, and want to see MORE protections, not less, to preserve and restore the best of what we have left.
A lack of decisive legal action by the federal government after the Cliven Bundy stand-off has emboldened insurrectionists across the West. While it is of the highest most importance that the situation at Malheur NWR be resolved peacefully, it cannot be truly resolved without accountability for those who have illegally seized public lands that belong to all Americans. The actions of this militia must be denounced by our elected leaders in no-uncertain terms with a committment to hold those who would embrace this armed lawlessness accountable.
