The private sector does not care about racial or social equity, they only want profit and how better to do it than create a solid revenue stream under a guise such as this. The mass timber that is coming from Trump's legistlation will destroy our national parks, revoke protections from endangered species, and remove access for citizens to enjoy the natural lands that should belong to all of us. I would love to hear you dialogue with the indigenous peoples that used to be on these lands, the park rangers that were fired back in February, or from environmental groups that realize there should be a balance between human needs and ecosystem resources derived from our wild lands.
