Urgent Action Needed: Renew LWCFPhoto: Stock image via CC0.

The Land and Water Conservation Fund has protected millions of acres in nearly every county in the U.S. — at NO COST to taxpayers. But Congress didn’t save this vital program before it expired, leaving hundreds of conservation efforts across the country that rely on this funding in jeopardy.

Now LWCF is one step closer to being renewed — and we must flood Capitol Hill with our voices to get it over the finish line!

It’s crunch time. With a vote in the House expected before the end of the month, it’s up to our representatives to get this critical conservation program up and running again.

Call on Congress to permanently renew the Land and Water Conservation Fund now. The clock is ticking to reauthorize and fully fund it ASAP. Make your voice heard!

Renew LWCF Now

Dear TNC

I'm deeply concerned that Congress allowed the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) to expire. Our nation and our planet cannot afford to put essential conservation programs in jeopardy. It's essential to reauthorize and fully fund this program as soon as possible.

LWCF is one of America's most important and successful conservation programs, benefiting every state in the nation. LWCF has a 50-year track record of helping provide clean water, conserve natural resources, increase recreation opportunities and support communities.

Vital conservation work is in danger every day LWCF continues to be expired. Plus, renewing it and increasing its funding will not cost taxpayers a penny because it's paid for with drilling revenues from oil and gas companies. I urge you to reauthorize and fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund now.

Sincerely,
