Working to protect wild Alaska. ⛰️🌲🌊🐻
Washington, DC; Anchorage, AK
Joined March 2009
Today, we honor the Indigenous peoples whose stewardship has sustained Alaska’s lands since time immemorial, and who continue to protect them amid renewed threats under this administration from oil, roads, and mines. We stand alongside the Gwich'in, Iñupiat, and Alaska Native

Thousands spoke out before, and stopped Ambler Road. Now they’re trying again. Same road. Same harm. Let’s remind them: the Arctic isn’t for sale. #NoAmblerRoad Add your name 👉

Billionaire Trump donor rakes in $70M+ in one day thanks to a federal subsidy for Trilogy Metals. Insider trading anyone? This is exactly why we ALL should question who really benefits from Washington’s “support” for mining. https://t.co/az884OUVfl

Forbes Magazine noted that the Trump administration mentioned nothing about how one of Trump’s most loyal allies would gain from the federal subsidy of Trilogy.

🚨BREAKING: While federal workers go unpaid, Trump signed an order to revive Ambler Road, a 211-mile industrial corridor through Alaska’s wilderness — to profit a foreign mining company. This isn’t “America First.” It’s a sellout. Read our statement:

The Trump administration is once again prioritizing foreign mining interests over Alaskan communities and wild lands. Check out @alaskawild's statement on the new executive order directing the government to approve the Ambler road. #noamblerroad

The Trump administration wants to open 13.1 million acres of public lands to coal mining—part of their broader attack on conservation safeguards. Tell the administration that public lands should be managed for people, wildlife, and future generations. https://t.co/yuLRzC7x7c

The Trump administration is pushing the LARGEST public lands sell-off in modern history—175 million acres from the Arctic Refuge to the Boundary Waters. This is a massive rollback of protections in favor of oil & gas. It’s time to #StopTheArcticSellOff.
The fight to protect our public lands is far from over, with the Trump Administration aggressively dismantling numerous protections for America’s Arctic in favor of oil & gas development. Our leaders must work to #StopTheArcticSellOff. Read more:

Arctic Refuge, glaciers, Indigenous communities—all at risk. Trump’s $70B LNG pipeline would release 1.5B tons of CO₂ and lock Alaska into fossil fuels. Alaskans are fighting back with renewable solutions. Full story by @AntoniaJuhasz in @RollingStone: https://t.co/G4MMTsvVxI

The Arctic Refuge is one of the last truly wild places on Earth, and it’s under threat. Seismic exploration could destroy wildlife, sacred lands, and the Gwich’in way of life. We stopped it once. We can do it again. Read how & take action ➡️ https://t.co/h5Kk3KKHrG

From Lawrence Glacier to the Arctic Refuge, Alaska’s wild places, and the people and wildlife that depend on them, are under direct attack by Trump’s fossil fuel agenda. Huge thank you to @AntoniaJuhasz for shining a light on this fight, and to the Alaskans, youth, and Gwich’in
Trump has set his sights on Alaska as a test case for his disastrous “National Energy Dominance” agenda, abandoning green sources of energy and locking in fossil fuel dependence. Last month, I met people across Alaska organizing to resist Trump’s plans. https://t.co/b5nC8aVsAM

🚨 Sullivan & Begich want to hand 82% of the Western Arctic to Big Oil (up from 52%) and erase Special Area protections. With a CRA, once protections are gone, they’re incredibly hard to get back. The Arctic deserves better.

🚨 The Trump admin is trying (again) to gut protections on 44M acres of national forest. The Roadless Rule keeps these wild places intact, and we have until Sept. 19 to defend it. Speak up ➡️ https://t.co/q7iTnthT02.. 🎥: Ben Hamilton/@pioneervideo

Alaskans were told Willow would fix the budget. Reality: The state will see 50% LESS revenue than promised, just $2.6B, while ConocoPhillips walks away with $10.3B. We’re trading away the Arctic and our climate for broken promises + Big Oil’s profit.

Some state officials have pinned their hopes on new oil revenue as a solution to the state's ongoing budget woes.

Imagine your favorite national forest… now imagine it gone. That’s what’s at stake if the Roadless Rule is rescinded.
