Teal background with text reading what to bring: Pre-made signs and a sign-making station: people will show up without signs, and this is a great way to keep them included, involved and engaged. Action Kits and Junior Resistance Ranger Books (from RR Website) Write-Your-Reps / Thank-A-Ranger station: prepare postcards and have an outline for participants to write to their representatives. Bring stamps to share! Find printables, templates, and call scripts at the linktree in our bio! Collage of signs in support of public lands and parks, with text reading: Positive, informative signs are most effective. Focus on what we’re FOR, rather than what we’re AGAINST. Blue background with text reading: can’t make it tomorrow? Take action from home: Send postcards! ! Print and share zines! Contact your representatives! Share in your community! Check our website! Post on social media and tag us! Don’t forget: #ProtectPublicLands #ResistanceRangers Check out the linktree in our bio for templates and scripts! Green background with text reading: what to do after the protest? LEAVE NO TRACE: Pack out your trash! BRAG ABOUT IT: Send us your protest numbers, and post your photos and videos! BUDDY SYSTEM: Make sure everyone gets home safely TREAT. YO. SELF. You earned it!

A cartoon of a person with a braid in park uniform in a canoe. Title says rally and learn action plan 3/22 Yellow background with text reading: what are we doing? Action: Rally at your closest park! Saturday, March 22nd (check the link in our bio for more details) Plan: Learn about the issues facing your public lands! EDUCATE, ACTIVATE, AGITATE! Shout it out loud 🗣️ Save Public Lands / Save Parks! From Budget Cuts From Staffing Cuts From Drilling and Privatization Take a stand for public land! Protect DIVERSE HISTORY Protect FLORA AND FAUNA Protect PUBLIC LAND STEWARDS Louder for the people in the back: PUBLIC 👏 LAND 👏 IS 👏 NOT 👏 FOR 👏 SALE. Green background with text reading what are we focused on? 🗣️ DOGE plans to terminate leases on dozens of NPS buildings: headquarters, museum spaces, visitor centers, and more. 👀 Interior Secretary Burgum and Energy Secretary Wright plan to review federal lands for resource extraction. This could mean LOGGING in forests, REMOVAL of federal protection, and DELETION of National Monuments. 😡 The attack on DEIA removed funding for staff, initiatives, and intern/volunteer opportunities. 🥶 The continuing hiring freeze means 1 in 4 NPS positions are vacant, with no plan to move forward. 🫠 We can’t forget the incoming Reduction In Force, which may decimate a further 20-30% of the NPS workforce. Blue background with text reading protest etiquette/safety: PLAN AHEAD: What are your designated routes and meeting spots? Do you need/have a permit? PREPARE FOR THE WEATHER: Sunscreen, bug spray, umbrella… you get the point. MAINTAIN AWARENESS: Be prepared to converse with passers-by. Stay safe near roads and other hazards. PACK YOUR GO-BAG: Bring first aid supplies, water, and snacks. LEAVE NO TRACE: Pack it in, pack it out. Bring bags and encourage others to pick up trash. MOST IMPORTANTLY: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

GREAT NEWS from the courts today! Illegally-fired feds (including NPS) must be reinstated. BUT will DOI comply?

You know the drill, team! Let's tell DOI to follow the law and rehire rangers. Stand up for parks and public lands ✊

Script and addresses at tinyurl.com/RehireDOI
