CFB Message:

"Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) appointments go to the Senate Floor on Friday, March 8.

Tell them to oppose these appointments due to concerns about their qualifications, backgrounds, potential biases, and the public's trust in CPW's ability to manage shared resources today and for future generations.

WHAT THE MESSAGE TO LEGISLATORS SAYS:

Please oppose Colorado Parks and Wildlife's (CPW) appointments due to concerns about their qualifications, backgrounds, potential biases, and the public's trust in CPW's ability to manage shared resources today and for future generations.

Partnerships with CPW and local agricultural communities are a testament to the importance of maintaining the delicate equilibrium between economic growth and environmental conservation.

Our objections to the current nominees for the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission (CPW) arise from a critical examination of their collective qualifications and perceived biases, which may hinder their ability to effectively fulfill the commission's diverse responsibilities and serve as equitable trustees of CPW. The underlying issue is not just the individual backgrounds of these nominees, which, while impressive in certain areas, lack the comprehensive experience necessary for appropriate management of parks, wildlife, and outdoor recreation. The nominees' lack of broad recreational management experience, demonstrated objections towards holistic science-based wildlife management and the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, and limited engagement and experience with the relationship between private land management.

We urge members of the Colorado Senate to reject the three nominees for the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission due to concerns about their qualifications, backgrounds, potential biases, and underlying concern regarding the public’s trust in CPW’s ability to manage our shared our public resources in a manner that will provide the same opportunities we have today for future generations."
