Help Keep Nevada Wild!
Gold Butte, in south-west Nevada is being threatened by the increase in people living in neighboring areas and the Bureau of Land Management has designated Gold Butte as an Area of Critical Environmental Concern. Action is need to help preserve this special piece of Nevada.
Congress can help preserve Gold Butte by creating a National Conservation Area with Wilderness Designation on the 350,000 acres of public land there. Please ask Nevada's congressional delegation to take the lead in making sure that this happens.
