Thank you @SenCortezMasto & @RepSusieLee for listening to the majority of Nevadans (73%) who want to #ReformLeasing so that oil & gas CEOs are only allowed the right to drill in areas of #PublicLands where there is a high likelihood to actually produce oil and gas.

Republicans will soon bring an anti-climate action, aggressively pro-drilling and mining package to the House floor, leading up to a full vote in the coming weeks. Tell House members to reject this catastrophic anti-climate, anti-public lands bill! https://t.co/d3d9n5spSi

Kudos to @blmnv for getting those signs up so fast!

[Secretary Deb Haaland @SecDebHaaland]

.@POTUS made the Avi Kwa Ame National Monument designation official yesterday. Then, our @BLMNational and @blmnv teams faced the rain, sleet and cold winds to get the signs up quickly.

Now, it's "official, official"!

[Secretary Deb Haaland @SecDebHaaland]

Avi Kwa Ame holds deep spiritual, sacred and historic significance to the Native people who have lived on these lands for generations. I am grateful to @POTUS for taking this important step in recognition of the decades of advocacy from Tribes and the scientific community.

We're hoping the unnamed sources are wrong. Approving Willow would be a horrible move for our climate.

The Biden admin must do the right thing and choose a no-action alternative in a record of decision to kill this destructive proposal. #StopWillow https://t.co/oCmDJqTDDi

Extreme heat is something that we have grown accustomed to in the Southwest, it’s never too early to prepare for the hot season. Check out this new interactive story map that NWF has released on the Rise of Extreme Heat. #ActOnClimate @NWF

We haven't always been this polluted, since 2013, nearly every year wildfires have turned Reno/Sparks from one of the cleaner western metro areas to one of the worst. #ActOnClimate

This new video explains why it’s time to #HonorAviKwaAme by safeguarding wildlife and Indigenous sites. @SenCortezMasto & @SenJackyRosen tell POTUS to designate this important area as a national monument so that wildlife can thrive and sacred sites are preserved. #MonumentsForAll

The price per barrel of oil is currently $88. Yet gasoline prices in Nevada are at the same levels they were when a barrel of oil was $121. It is time to reform the oil and gas program. #reformoilandgas

I'm really looking forward to sharing the films we've selected for this year's Wild & Scenic Film Fest! It's an incredible mix of science, adventure, and humanity that makes me feel so inspired to keep caring for the planet and to keep finding ways to spend time outside 📽️🍿🌎

THIS. Laying it all out 🔥🔥🔥

We cannot fail to meet this moment - the lakes can no longer cover up our mistakes.

It’s all hands on deck to get the Colorado river back into balance- a place it hasn’t been for decades.

Let’s get to work!
