Wovoka and Pine Forest Range: One Step Closer to Wilderness Protection
New wilderness for Nevada in September? It's now very possible thanks to the hard work from Congressmen Amodei and Horsford! Last week, the House Natural Resources Committee unanimously passed the Northern Nevada Land Conservation and Economic Development Act (HR. 5202). This collection of bills would designate Wovoka and Pine Forest - 71,500 acres of wilderness! Please take a moment to thank Congressman Amodei and Horsford for championing this bill.
