Tell Congress: stop the censorship & defend the public servants who protect our 433+ national parks
America 433+ is a national public education campaign and civic call to action responding to the growing attack, erasure, and distortion of our shared American story.
Our national parks are more than landscapes. They are places where people learn who we are, where we have been, and what we owe future generations. At the core of the mission of our nation’s 433 parks (and growing) is the preservation of the histories, cultures, knowledge, and natural resources that belong to all of us.
Tell Congress: stop the censorship in our 433+ national parks and defend the public servants who protect them.
The National Park Service was created by law in 1916 with a mission to steward and protect our nation's scenery, wildlife, natural resources, and historic treasures while ensuring they remain unimpaired for future generations. That mission remains as urgent today as ever.
Across the country, we are witnessing efforts to remove, suppress, alter, or diminish access to public history, scientific knowledge, Indigenous perspectives, and cultural interpretation. At the same time, chronic understaffing, resource shortages, and attacks on public institutions threaten the ability of our parks to fulfill their public mission.
America 433+ believes that public lands and institutions should tell the fullest story of this country. Protecting our parks means protecting public memory, scientific integrity, democratic access to knowledge, and the fullness of the American experience.
