Restore Protection to Idaho Roadless Forests!

The Roadless Area Conservation Rule AKA the Roadless Rule provides blanket protection for roadless areas in every state except Idaho.

Dirty politics from Bushco era henchman Dirk Kempthorne (former Idaho Governor and Secretary of the Interior with the worst environmental record ever) have resulted in Idaho being omitted from the Roadless Rule.

Roadless land accounts for a mere 2% of all land in the United States, where Idaho and Alaska share the majority of the 2%. That's all that is left.

Idaho has over 9 million acres of roadless territory - take action now - ask President Obama to protect the last of Idaho's pristine roadless areas with the Roadless Rule!
We the undersigned request that the state of Idaho be covered by the Roadless Rule, which currently protects roadless areas in all 49 other states.

Idaho and Alaska share the majority of roadless land left in the United States, which account for only 2% of all land - that's all that is left!

Idaho roadless areas represent some of our last remaining intact ecosystems, wildlife areas and open-spaces.

74% of Steelhead and Chinook Salmon habitat in roadless areas, and Steelhead and Salmon fishers spend $60 million annually in Idaho (Source: Wilderness Society).

Idaho roadless areas are vital not only to our environment and wildlife, but to a healthy human existence as well. Without roadless land, we risk loosing our connection to nature for good.

Please restore the Roadless Rule in the state of Idaho; with over 9 million acres of roadless land at risk, it is the state with the most to lose.
