Dear [Senator/Representative Last Name],

I am writing as a concerned constituent and advocate for our nation’s public lands. The recent budget cuts to the National Park Service (NPS), including staff reductions and operational limitations, pose a serious threat to the preservation of these national treasures.

Our national parks not only protect critical ecosystems and cultural landmarks but also generate billions in revenue from tourism, supporting local economies. Reducing NPS funding will result in park closures, delayed maintenance, and decreased visitor services, directly affecting millions of Americans and international visitors who cherish these landscapes.

I urge you to:

1. Oppose any reductions to the NPS budget and advocate for full funding.

2. Support legislation that prioritizes park conservation, staffing, and maintenance.

3. Hold the Department of the Interior accountable for ensuring parks remain accessible and well-maintained.

Please stand up for our national parks and protect them for future generations. I look forward to your response and to seeing your commitment to preserving our public lands.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your City, State]
