Oregon: Treasures Bill may protect Rogue River Canyon & Oregon Caves National Monument
A conservation and business-backed bill called Oregon Treasures – – > http://savethewildrogue.org almost passed last Congress, but we ran out of time. Now, we need your help to get the bill reintroduced and passed this year. Oregon Treasures would protect a large swath of threatened old-growth forest in the Wild Rogue River Canyon and increase the size of the Oregon Caves National Monument.

KS Wild and our allies have other, even bigger visions of land protection measures we are excited to get working on, but first we need to get this important legislation pushed through Congress and signed by President Obama.
With Gordon Smith having been replaced by Oregon’s newest Senator, Jeff Merkley, the political winds have shifted in our favor and the bill has a very high likelihood of becoming law.
Please help protect the Wild Rogue River and Oregon Caves by contacting Senators Wyden and Merkley and Congressman DeFazio http://savethewildrogue.org/take-action and asking them to move forward and protect Oregon Treasures today!
