I can't believe they're trying to mess with our land in Alaska! This bill is a disaster waiting to happen. It's gonna hurt the environment and our wildlife. We need to protect our natural resources, not destroy them for profit. This bill is a big mistake, and it's gonna have long term consequences for all of us.

This bill is a total disaster! It's gonna ruin the environment and hurt wildlife in Alaska. Why are they trying to mess with nature like this? It's just not right. We need to protect our land and animals, not destroy it for some short-term gain. I can't believe they're even considering this. It's just wrong. #ProtectTheEnvironment #NoToSJRES80
