This Land is Your Land: the Fight for Public Lands

Co-founders of the American Hunters and Anglers Action Network, Land Tawney and Aaron Murphy, join hosts Heidi and Joel Heitkamp to tackle the urgent threats facing America’s public lands. Land and Aaron break down recent political attempts to sell off millions of acres of public lands and explain what’s truly at stake for rural communities and outdoor enthusiasts.

You will learn more about the ongoing fight to keep public lands accessible, the role of grassroots activism, and the economic and lifestyle benefits these lands provide to all Americans. You will get actionable tips for getting involved, making your voice heard, and understanding why public lands matter, whether you hunt, fish, hike, or simply value clean air and water.
