SOUTH LAKE TAHOE

Sierra Club is helping organize two upcoming town halls near Sacramento and in Lake Tahoe in defense of the Roadless Rule, a U.S. Forest Service protection approved in 2001 that is now being targeted for repeal by the Trump administration. 

The expected rollback would mark a massive change in forest policy, opening up to 45 million acres nationwide to potential development. These events are an excellent opportunity to share concerns and connect with local community members, including conservation groups, former U.S. Forest Service employees, and experts on forest ecology and fire. 

The first town hall will be held on May 12 in Rocklin (Sacramento) at 5:30 p.m. on the Sierra College campus.

The second town hall is scheduled for May 13 in South Lake Tahoe at 5:30 p.m. on the Lake Tahoe Community College campus.
