约炮视频 Responds to Secretary Zinke鈥檚 Resignation: He Never Found a Balance
Zinke never found a balance; his successor could
Washington, D.C. (December 15, 2018) 鈥淪ecretary Zinke鈥檚 job was to balance development interests with protecting public lands and wildlife. He got it half right, taking care of special interests at the expense of conservation. The investigations he鈥檚 facing also suggest he didn鈥檛 know the difference between right and wrong,鈥 said David Yarnold, President and CEO of 约炮视频 (@david_yarnold). "There鈥檚 a chance for his successor to reverse Zinke鈥檚 mistakes. We don鈥檛 have to undermine bedrock wildlife laws that protect birds and endangered species, sell off public lands to the highest bidder and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling. It鈥檚 right to live by the truth and to treasure nature鈥檚 gifts.鈥
