Defending America’s national parks from Trump’s attacks. Fighting privatization, cuts, and corruption to protect our public lands. #SaveOurParks
Get yourself someone who looks at you like Doug Burgum looks at Saudi oil barons. Have you ever seen someone fawning over oligarchs while assaulting our #PublicLands and #Parks? Neither have we. Burgum’s got a real corruption problem. #SaveOurParks

Some unanswered questions from Doug Burgum's junket abroad schmoozing with oil barons and oligarchs:

Were your flights commercial or private, and who paid?

Did members of your family go with you?

Why are you taking vacations while park employees, firefighters, and rangers go unpaid?

Where’s diva Doug Burgum this week? Oh, he’s jet-setting on the taxpayer dime to Greece again this week, while park employees, firefighters, and emergency responders go without pay. #Shutdown #SaveOurParks www.saveourparks.us/wheres-doug

Trump’s tearing down the East Wing illegally—and it’s not just about the White House. It’s a preview of what’s coming for our national parks. Lawless destruction. No oversight. Total impunity. #SaveOurParks

The Interior Department says Yosemite’s “fully staffed.”

Meanwhile: squatters in campgrounds. BASE jumpers off El Capitan. Rangers gone.

Are you gonna believe lying Doug Burgum — or your own eyes?

Our parks belong to all of us — not to polluters, vandals, or poachers.

Trump’s shutdown and Doug Burgum’s silence are putting them at risk.

Protect what’s yours:

Donald Trump and Doug Burgum are keeping parks “open” with skeleton crews. That means overflowing trash, unsafe conditions, and no staff to protect wildlife.

“Parks don’t run themselves.”

Without rangers, Yosemite, Everglades, Rocky Mountain & more face vandalism, overflowing waste, and public safety crises.

Donald Trump and Doug Burgum are walking away from their duty to protect our parks.

Trump’s Forest Service plan: fire 3,400 workers, slash budgets by 34%, and double logging. The result? We lose forests, clean water, and wildlife.

Trump and his billionaire Interior Secretary want to auction off our public lands to oil, gas, and timber giants. We say: our lands aren’t for sale. #ProtectPublicLands 🌲

When Trump and Doug Burgum slash park budgets, the damage goes beyond empty ranger stations and closed trails. It deepens the barriers many communities already face in accessing nature. Public lands are meant to be shared by all of us—not reserved for the privileged few.

A visitor who toured Zion, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, and Badlands described what they found: no rangers to guide them, hikes cancelled, and parks that felt more commercial than natural. Staff cuts are stripping away the rangers who protect our resources and enrich every visit.

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” slashed $267 M from the Park Service and ordered a workforce shrink. Since January, the NPS has lost nearly 1/4 of its permanent staff—while visitation hit a record 331 M in 2024.

Cuts + hiring freeze = a slow‑motion crisis. #SaveOurParks

Nearly 1 in 4 park workers are gone. Budget slashing under Trump/Burgum leaves half of seasonal jobs unfilled and puts up to 350 parks at risk of closure. Our parks aren’t a corporate asset. Tell Congress to stop the cuts and start hiring. #SaveOurParks

Staffing shortages hit 90 national parks. CBS reports that nearly 70 parks have reduced hours or services, 22 postponed maintenance and 11 delayed openings due to departures, cuts and a hiring freeze. Trump’s promise to hire 8,000 seasonal workers? Only half showed up by July.

Being a park ranger means sacrifice. Lydia worked six months at Badlands and moved between parks in winter, hoping for a permanent role. Trump and Burgum’s layoffs shattered that dream and ripped experienced rangers away from the places they love.

Staffing cuts hurt every corner of our parks. The Trump–Burgum mandate has slashed 24% of the NPS’s permanent workforce—more than 1,800 employees were pushed out—and nearly 1/5 of the 433 parks report serious strain. Rangers are being asked to do the impossible with fewer hands.
September 9, 2025 at 3:19 PM
A new National Parks Conservation Association report warns that our parks are at a breaking point: staff overwhelmed, facilities deteriorating, and visitors left without basic services. The Park Service has lost 24% of its staff since Trump took office—thanks to Burgum’s buyout-driven downsizing.
September 9, 2025 at 12:30 PM
Donald Trump, Doug Burgum, and their billionaire cronies are gutting America’s national parks and public lands. They’re slashing staff, raising fees, and handing public lands to corporate cronies.

This isn’t mismanagement. It’s sabotage. And we’re fighting back. #saveourparks
