Had a great meeting with @OutdoorAlliance about our ongoing work to pass #WildOlympics. I'm doing everything I can in the Senate to protect these lands—and I'm grateful for their partnership in this work.
This is a big deal.
Together, @PattyMurray, @WildOlympics, and I are working to protect the wildest and most pristine places on the Olympic Peninsula while ensuring we can keep and grow jobs in our natural resource industries and other sectors.
