These people had protected status. They lived here legally. They worked, they paid taxes. They made lives. Raised families. Now we’ve dehumanized them. Ripped away that protection and told them to get out. This is a stain on the soul of this Nation.

The Trump administration has proposed a rollback of the Roadless Rule, which has kept our wildest forests intact for 25 years, a move that could pave the way for a major increase in industrial logging. Now, the public has a chance to weigh in before the rollback is finalized.
