For sake of outdoors, Congress needs to act

One of the great things about living in Southern Nevada is our access to the outdoors. Not only do we have incredible public land resources, where we can hike, camp, hunt and fish, bird watch or just relax, we also have world-class urban parks and recreation facilities. What a lot of people don’t know is that many of our wildlife refuges, state parks, and urban parks and recreation facilities have been funded by a federal program called the Land and Water Conservation Fund.
