Lobby Day for Land Conservation

Land conservation advocates plan to raise awareness about the lack of funding for land conservation. Governor Bevin’s proposed budget includes severe cuts in many areas: most notably for public lands protection. During the last budget cycle, $8 million was cut from lands protection. In this cycle, another $10 million is proposed for cuts. This has effectively has put a halt to land conservation programs which rely on state funds.
