Your legislators need to hear from you!

We are entering a critical time during the legislative process. For the first time in many years, the Resource Enhancement and Protection Program (REAP) has a real chance at being fully funded! But we need your help. Legislators are saying they really aren't hearing from their constituents that conservation is a priority. There's an easy remedy.

Call your legislators today, and tell them you support conservation. Ask them to:

  • Fully fund REAP at $20 million.
  • Budget $5 million for Trails.
  • Budget $2 million for River Restoration.

Find your legislator.
