Yesterday the State of Alaska and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to officially initiate the rulemaking process to develop an Alaska-specific Roadless Rule, ensuring greater access to our national forests.

I appreciate the work done by Secretary Perdue for recognizing the need for economic relief in these communities, and look forward to continuing to work with the administration, state officials, Sen. Sullivan, and Congressman Young to see this process through to the finish line.

The Tongass is a forest that belongs to The People. Tax payer subsidized destructive logging on public lands is part of Alaska’s past. We need to look North to The Future and recognize the growing eco friendly tourism economy that doesn’t cost the tax payers a penny.

1) Sickening greed of
@lisaMurkowski@SecretarySonny Perdue & Murkowski want to exempt Alaska from the 2001 USFS “roadless rule” prohibits road building on 44.8m acres in 37 states. They want to expand clearcut logging (& road building) in America’s premier temperate rainforest -
2) one of the rarest biomes in the world. This would create jobs, yes. A few. But in today’s world not every job is a smart job. Not every job makes the world a better place. Back in 1999, more than 1.6 million people commented on the USFS roadless rule, with 95% supporting

@SecretarySonny understood ecology, climate science and environmental economics, he’d see the Tongass as already healthy, and working for us. -
4) Primal old-growth trees – the trees Perdue wants to cut down – breathe in vast amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2, a greenhouse gas), sequester it, and exhale life-giving oxygen. In today’s warming world, it’s the best deal going.https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jul/31/alaska-tongass-national-forest-at-risk-logging-perdue …
