People using their speech and agency to object to yours is not an infringement on your rights or "cancellation".

[Rob Mac @RMcElhenney]

Probably.

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@OregonWild @RonWyden Thank you for your efforts to protect our public lands, and for listening to all voices. It's a shame to see such hateful messages in response.

Setting aside internet trolls, be assured you have lots of support!

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@BrendaMallory46 @POTUS @pattiegonia Fantastic! Let's protect those mature AND old-growth forests!

The Forest Service's logging proposals here in Eastern Oregon are out of control!

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@RonWyden Love it!

[Ron Wyden @RonWyden]

Thankful this Earth Day for powerhouse advocates like Oregon's own iconic Pattie Gonia who work day in and day out to create grassroots change and demand climate action from their elected officials.

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

"The government may store carbon dioxide under the nation's forests"

This is EXACTLY what forests do when the @forestservice doesn't cut them down.

And they do it for free!

@George_Plaven ...and nothing delays good projects more than tacking on logging big trees and violating environmental laws. Here's to hoping this allows us to refocus on legitimate common ground and get important work done

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@George_Plaven Always sorry to see folks reframe holding the government accountable to its own laws as a bad thing.

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@ryanjhaas And generally EOMG is anything other than progressive.

Cliff Bentz wasn't always this way!

[Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker]

Ahead of Earth Day it’s great to see @forestservice & @USDA announce actions to better manage our nation’s forests. This is an important step forward that recognizes the importance of natural climate solutions like protecting old-growth forest stands.

@Leah_Sottile Hadn't even heard about it till I saw your reporting!

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@Leah_Sottile Not sure, but I am sure I appreciate your work!

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

Big If True.

Wish I were totally surprised.

@RepBentz @SenLummis Looking forward to hearing about your efforts to fix outdated laws like the Taylor Grazing Act (1930's) and 1872 Mining Law.

[Rob Klavins @KlavinsRob]

@Emma_Marris Good point. Also, feelings of impending societal and ecological doom...And, what was once "normal" doesn't feel normal anymore.

Thank you @SecDebHaaland @BLMNational and @Interior for taking this first important step towards a new, strong conservation rule. Please ensure our mature and old-growth #ClimateForests remain standing to fight #ClimateChange for future generations. https://t.co/6KFM0tTtCE

BREAKING NEWS: Wolverine spotted near Portland, OR for the first time in over 30 years!

Wolverines are threatened in Oregon and the few in Oregon are usually only spotted in the Wallowa Mountains, so the fact one was spotted so far west is a huge deal.

Stay safe buddy!

And find a mate!

[Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife @MyODFW]

Hey, is that a wolverine…again? The bushy tail, blackish brown coat and pale brown stripe along its side certainly look wolverine-like! A second sighting of the wolverine was reported in Damascus, Oregon on Wednesday after an initial sighting along the Columbia River on Monday.
