Protect Our Parks From More Budget Cuts

Yellowstone, Gettysburg, the Statue of Liberty and Everglades are among the many national parks that we -- as Americans -- fund to celebrate our natural wonders and commemorate history for all to see. They only occupy one-thirteenth of one percent of the federal budget. That is a quite a bargain for a system of national parks we can all enjoy and be inspired by.

Unfortunately, Congress has been cutting the Park Service's miniscule budget. It has to stop. Not only will this mean a reduction in staff -- the rangers that greet us and help us plan our visits -- but it also means the parks won't be adequately maintained. This is not how we should treat our prized lands and sacred areas where we reflect on history.

Sign the petition to ask Congress to prevent additional cuts to funding for the National Park Service in Fiscal Year 2012.
We, the undersigned, respectfully ask you to prevent additional cuts to the National Park Service in FY12.

Funding to staff and maintain our National Parks is a miniscule part of the federal budget, but it provides an incredible value to Americans who want to enjoy our country's natural wonders or commemorate its history.

Please protect our parks. Don't cut funding for the National Park Service.
