FOREST OVER PROFITS COUNTER - Conference
Join forest defenders and climate activists across the Pacific Northwest for Forest Over Profits 2026 on September 12-13 in Portland, OR. This movement gathering will build community, power, and momentum against the exploitation of our forests and public lands. As Wall Street investors scheme to use AI to wring every dollar out of PNW forests and the Trump Admin ruthlessly attacks public land protections, it's clear that only grassroots movements can defend the wellbeing of communities and the land from corporate profit. At Forests Over Profits, we'll hear from ongoing land-defense campaigns against extractive logging, data center development, and mining from across the PNW. We'll share and learn skills and practices for fighting back, connect with ongoing struggles for land & justice, and deepen ties between movements.
Stay tuned for more information on programming. RSVP link coming soon.
Call Your Senators to Oppose the Fix Our Forests Act
The Fix Our Forests Act wants to fight wildfires with MORE logging. We need to stop it. We need you to call your senator to keep this harmful act from coming to a vote.
The Fix Our Forests Act views fire primarily as a problem that begins and ends with more logging. This bill hands the keys to our public lands over to the Trump administration, which is actively working to radically increase commercial logging. Instead of supporting scientific analyses, transparency and accountability, FOFA curtails public input, limits judicial review and weakens bedrock environmental and wildlife laws.
The advocacy of everyday people is the reason there are still mature and old-growth forests for future generations to enjoy. FOFA would allow logging projects as large as 15 square miles — the size of the entire city of Corvallis — to proceed without important environmental analysis and community input. That’s why climate and forest watch groups across the state and country are opposing this bill, including the Sierra Club and Earthjustice.
Call your Senators before August 7th to prevent this bill from coming to a vote in the Senate.
All members of the Senate need to hear from their constituents. A U.S. Capitol Switchboard operator can connect you directly with the Senate office. Call (202) 224-312 to be connected and follow this script:
Hi, I’m [Name] and I live in [Town]. I’m reaching out about the Fix Our Forests Act.
Sen. _____________ please do not fall for the misleading Fix Our Forests Act. I oppose this bill because (pick any/all talking points).
There is a big difference between legitimate wildfire mitigation and damaging commercial logging. This bill will incentivize damaging commercial logging.
It contains no dedicated funding for the type of wildfire strategies that save lives and livelihoods: Home hardening, defensible space, and emergency planning.
The bill guts Endangered Species Act consultation at the landscape level and removes essential protections for vulnerable fish and wildlife.
The bill undermines the National Environmental Policy Act. We should not make it easier for the Trump admin to do bad logging projects without public input.
The bill shortens the judicial review window on forest logging projects, which places an unfair burden on frontline communities and Tribes who deserve equal say in how their public lands are managed.
Our public lands, wildlife, and communities deserve better. Please oppose this bill during the next vote. Thank you.
Donate to Save Twin Rivers Legacy Forest!
The Doc Holliday Unit of the Twin Rivers Legacy Forest on the Olympic Peninsula is being logged NOW. The Elwha Legacy Forest Coalition has launched a GoFundMe to save as many acres as possible from imminent clearcutting.
Unit 5 of the Doc Holliday Sale (Photo by Scott McGee/Forest2Sea.com
The Coalition has an ambitious goal of raising 280k to save a large section of the remaining forest. The good news: Webster logging has agreed that for every 20k raised, we can save 1 acre of precious, biodiverse habitat.
The Elwha Legacy Forest Coalition is doing a big fundraising push through August 3rd (and beyond) to save one of the most incredible patches of Old Western Red Cedar and Sitka Spruce in what's left of Unit 5. The time is NOW, logging in this unit has already begun.
Every dollar counts. Every acre matters. Support the GoFundMe below to help the Elwha Legacy Forest Coalition save legacy forests on the Olympic Peninsula

Earth First! Summer Gathering
This summer the annual Earth First! summer gathering is happening in the PNW, near Chehalis, WA, July 3-9. We're going to have a group camp for Alliance members during the gathering!
If you aren't familiar with Earth First!, it's a decentralized, radical environmental movement that's been around since 1980. Operating without formal leaders or hierarchical structures, it champions biocentrism—the belief that all living things have intrinsic value—and relies on nonviolent direct action. Earth First! activists have been central to many forest defense campaigns across the PNW over the last 40 years, though most folks know of it in this region for tree-sitting and blockading logging on public lands (like the Warner Creek campaign, the 30th Anniversary of which is coming up in August).
The Earth First! summer gathering is an annual campout convergence of hundreds of eco-activists. There are workshops, skillshares, panels & discussions, and more! It's a great place to connect with others fighting environmental destruction across North America. We (the PNW Forest Climate Alliance) will have an informal group camp, so you'll be sure to see some familiar faces to camp and spend the gathering with. A volunteer kitchen provides three meals each day. It's a very free-form gathering--go to workshops and trainings, go for a hike in the woods, or hang out and chat with others working to defend wild places. You can attend for a day, several days, or the whole week. It's similar in many ways to the Deep Roots camps that the Alliance has been part of organizing the last few years, but with more activists from across the continent.
Also, the organizers are fundraising to support BIPOC activists from frontline struggles to attend the gathering; please consider chipping in a donation. Ensuring that BIPOC frontline community can deepen personal ties within a vastly wide network of environmental activists means we are weaving the web that is holding us together despite and in defiance of the ongoing desecration of our sacred earth.

Free to Grow film screening // Bay City, OR
Old Grove Films, Beyond Toxics, and North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection present a screening of “Free to Grow,” with filmmaker Jesse Andrew Clark in attendance. Admission is free!
About the Film: Local Emmy-winning filmmaker Jesse Andrew Clark’s half-hour documentary “Free to Grow” is a chilling portrait of three families who put everything on the line to keep themselves safe from pesticide exposure. Oregonians have taken up the fight against aerial herbicide spraying by the forestry industry for over fifty years — but has public safety around these substances improved? Clark will introduce his film and answer questions after the screening. “The subjects I follow in the film convey the urgent need to overhaul one of the oldest industrial forestry practices,” Clark notes. “The film shows how folks living near working forests, as well as forest workers themselves, bear the brunt of health effects, and are often left with little or no recourse.”
After the film: Jennifer Eisele from Beyond Toxics will discuss practical ways that coastal residents can keep track of spraying in their communities and watersheds. This includes a first-of-its-kind map which plots pesticide applications in Oregon forests from 2014 to 2024. This mapping tool was recently featured on the University of Oregon’s website: https://news.uoregon.edu/uo-labs-collaboration-nonprofit-brings-pesticide-use-oregon-light?utm_source= oregonnews-04-27-26
We will also provide resources to sign up for future forestry herbicide spray notifications through the Oregon Forestry Activity Electronic Reporting and Notification System (FERNS). Beyond Toxics is an Oregon-based nonprofit, working toward cleaner water, air and environmental justice. Beyond Toxics supports legislation across Oregon that prioritizes health and wellness for communities affected by pesticides and pesticide drift.
About NCCWP: North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection wants no more logging and pesticide use in community drinking water sources regardless of who owns the land, and wants an end to pesticide applications near where people live, work, and recreate. Safe drinking water and clean air are part of the public trust that we all are entitled to have.

WA Green Amendment Info Session for PNWFCA Members
The Washington Green Amendment campaign is working to pass a state constitutional amendment codifying the right to clean water and air, and a safe and healthy environment. In this info session for members of the PNW Forest Climate Alliance, we’ll hear from Maya van Rossum (Green Amendments founder & Delaware Riverkeeper) and David Kipnis (WA Green Amendment campaigner) about the growing Green Amendment movement and how it can transform the paradigm of environmental protection. It will also provide an update on the ongoing effort to pass a Green Amendment in Washington State and how activists and organizations can get involved. There will be time for Q&A with the speakers following the presentation.
What is a Green Amendment?
The money and political power amassed by big polluters means communities often feel powerless when it comes to preserving the quality of their water, air, public parks, and special natural spaces. Environmental Justice communities find themselves particularly hard hit; while there is increasing recognition and awareness when it comes to considering environmental justice issues, the fact is that People of Color, Indigenous Communities, low income communities, and communities with high immigrant populations continue to be disproportionately targeted for placement and expansion of polluting industrial operations and environmentally degrading activities. The goal of Green Amendments For The Generations is to advance a national, state by state, Green Amendment movement and to ensure that governments across the nation at the local and state level honor the rights of all people to pure water, clean air, a stable climate and healthy environments in the laws they enact, the decisions they make, and the actions they take by securing the passage of enforceable environmental rights amendments in the Bill of Rights section of every constitution – state and federal – and ensuring their strong and meaningful enforcement. Three states already have Green Amendments and are putting them to work – Washington State needs and deserves one too!
New Direction for Public Lands Campaign Info Session
Adam Bronstein (Western Watersheds Project) and Jennifer Mamola (The John Muir Project) will be presenting and fielding questions on an emerging public lands and wildlife initiative called the New Direction for Public Lands. This info session for members of the PNW Forest Climate Alliance will lay out the vision and goals of the new campaign/coalition, include time for questions and discussion, and serve as an entry-point for Alliance members wishing to get involved in the effort.
What is the New Direction for Public Lands?
Public lands, watersheds, and wildlife are currently under attack—and have been for decades as a result of ineffectual laws, legal loopholes, and agency mismanagement. Industry controls the levers of power and has an iron grip on Congress. It’s time to reimagine a future where public lands are managed for their ecological integrity and public benefit, not private industry exploitation. The New Direction for Public Lands is a shared vision to protect, rewild, and reimagine our nation’s public lands by offering legislative solutions at the federal level. Our collection of impactful policies point the way towards the future we envision for public lands and wildlife. Our movement of advocates, scientists, recreationists, and concerned citizens is united to end exploitation of these lands and ensure they serve the public good. Inspired by the generations before us who rose to safeguard America’s natural heritage, we call for a new era of responsible stewardship and conservation that reflects the values of everyday Americans nationwide.
*Note: the PNW Forest Climate Alliance doesn't formally endorse or sign onto coalitions or campaigns; we host webinars like this to share information & organizing opportunities with our members.

Community Meeting on Roadless Forests // Seattle
The Community Meeting on Roadless Forests will be held on Friday, April 17 from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm (doors at 5:15) at The Mountaineers Program Center in the Sand Point area of Seattle (7700 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA 98115). The public meeting will address a current proposal by the U.S. Forest Service to repeal the National Forest Roadless Area Conservation Rule of 2001 which provides administrative protections for nearly 60 million acres of national forest lands (including nearly 2 million in Washington State) prohibiting the building of new road construction in unroaded areas. The rule provides important protections for remaining old-growth forests, clean water, responsible recreation opportunities, salmon and wildlife habitat and tribal treaty rights and lifeways.
Public Lands, Public Voices: A night of trivia, inspiration, and action for roadless forests // Eugene
Speak up for your roadless public lands
25 years ago, the US Forest Service held more than 600 public meetings during the process to create the Roadless Rule, one of the most important conservation measures in history—and it could soon be repealed.
The Trump Administration’s current process to repeal the rule does not include a single public meeting—so our community is hosting our own.
Join Oregon Wild, Cascadia Wildlands, FUSEE, 350 Eugene, and other groups at Gratitude Brewing on Tuesday, April 14 to learn and celebrate how roadless protections support diverse shared values and essential conservation outcomes. Most importantly, we’ll be taking collective action to stop this latest attack on our public lands.
This event will include stations for learning about and taking action for roadless forests, a program (beginning at 5:30pm) featuring several voices supporting roadless area protections, and TRIVIA (beginning at 6:00pm)! Food and beverage is available for purchase.
Public Lands, Public Voices: Reclaiming Roadless Forests Town Hall // Portland
For nearly 25 years, the Roadless Rule has protected 58.5 million acres of America's last wild forests—places that provide clean drinking water to 60 million Americans, harbor threatened wildlife, and offer unparalleled recreation opportunities. This bedrock conservation policy, enacted in 2001 after the most extensive public process in federal history (600 public meetings and 1.6 million comments), has proven its worth: protecting watersheds, storing carbon, and maintaining the backcountry character that defines the American West. Now, the administration has announced its intent to rescind this successful rule entirely. Despite generating over 600,000 public comments in opposition—with 99% supporting the rule's retention—the Forest Service appears unlikely to hold public meetings during this critical decision process. This represents a fundamental breakdown in democratic participation around the future of our public lands. We refuse to let these voices go unheard.

International Stop OREO Day of Action
From Rainforest Action Network.
Did you know that “milk’s favorite cookie” might be forest's worst nightmare? Oreo, and other snacks made by Mondelez use ingredients tied to forest and peatland destruction. But this isn’t just about forests and snacks, it’s about Indigenous and local community land rights, protections for forest defenders, and climate justice! On March 6th, “National Oreo Day” we are declaring International STOP Oreo Day of Action to disrupt the status quo, where huge marketing budgets hide the calls for justice and accountability. We are calling on supporters and allies around the world to join us to Stop Oreo.
We have a variety of ways to take action from online action from the comfort of your home to calls and letter writing, to showing up to your local grocery to call out Oreo. Check out our digital ally action kit or our in-person action PDF.

Congress is currently considering legislation to give 115,000 acres of the Tongass National Forest to native corporations. These corporations have a brutal history with land management, and this bill has specific provisions to enable large scale industrial logging. This would include about 60,000 acres of areas currently protected by the roadless rule and 80,000 acres of old growth in total. We've recently heard that the house Democrats are supporting this bill and we need as many people as possible to take action.
Read more about the significance of the bill here.

HR 7603, or the "O&C Removal Act of 2026," would make timber production to fund county governments the primary purpose of public forests governed by the original O&C Act – the lands BLM manages. This bill would prioritize maximizing logging above all other values, weakening safeguards for fish and wildlife, shrinking stream protections, and opening vast areas of public forest to the kind of large-scale clearcutting that pushed species like coho salmon and northern spotted owls toward extinction in the first place.
Oppose this bill by sending a letter today!

Most of us share the same basic belief: if you cause harm, you answer for it. That's how courts work. That's how communities heal. That's just accountability.
The oil & gas industry has spent decades knowingly doing harm, all the while its profits soared, and your utility bills, food costs, and insurance premiums climbed higher and higher.
Now, Big Oil and Gas want to buy itself Congressional immunity from ever being held responsible.
With Republican lawmakers explicitly working with the American Petroleum Institute and Big Oil's lobbyists, they have introduced the “H.R.8330 and S.4340: Stop Climate Shakedowns Act of 2026." Despite its name, this bill isn't stopping shakedowns.It's running one: gutting every existing state law holding polluters accountable, dismissing pending lawsuits on the day it passes, and handing oil and gas companies lifetime immunity.
But more is possible because we have fought for it! States like Vermont and New York have already passed climate superfund laws that make polluters pay into funds that help communities recover and rebuild. Dozens more are fighting to do the same. Courts across the country are hearing cases brought by cities and counties to recover real damages from real harm. This is accountability working, and Big Oil and Gas want it gone before it goes further.
Tell Congress: no more immunity for industries that cause widespread harm. People over polluter profits. Oppose Immunity for Big Oil & Gas.
