EVENT STARTS AT 3:30 PM
\n\nDear friends\,
\n\nPublic lands are a precious part of Oregon&rsquo\;s natural heritage. Wild erness\, national recreation areas\, wild and scenic rivers\, and other fe deral public lands across the state preserve natural treasures and protect some of the values we hold most dear: wildlife\; clean air and water\; an d opportunities for outdoor recreation. These are some of our greatest gif ts to future generations. Thanks to the hard work of many individuals incl uding Senator Ron Wyden\, last month\, Congress passed long-overdue legisl ation protecting public lands and natural resources across the United Stat es\, including about 130\,000 acres and more than 280 miles of rivers in O regon. Senator Wyden and I want to start the conversation now about where we go from here. We want to hear from you about what public lands mean to you. Why do you care about protecting them\, and what are the places on fe deral lands in Oregon that are most special to you? I hope you will join S enator Wyden and me for a public forum to discuss Oregon&rsquo\;s public l and legacy\, and how we can all be a part of it.
\n\nMarch 1 8\, 2019 at 3:30 PM \;(doors open at 3 \;PM) at the Mazama Mountai neering Center 527 SE 43rd Avenue Portland\, OR 97215.
