Colorado Rally for Public Lands

Public lands are the soul of Colorado — connecting us to the land, to each other and to something far greater than ourselves. Whether you’re hiking the Colorado Trail, fly fishing along the Arkansas River, or camping with family and friends, public lands are where we find inspiration, a sense of belonging and a deeper relationship with the places we call “home.”

But our cherished public lands are under attack. Politicians in D.C. are pushing efforts to sell off, privatize and undermine protections for the lands that define Colorado’s heritage and way of life. That’s why we’re gathering on Saturday, May 17 at the Colorado State Capitol — to stand together, raise our voices and defend the public lands that belong to all of us.

What to expect:

• Powerful speakers from across Colorado — check back later for a detailed list

• Music, signs and a sea of public lands champions armed in boots, flannels and fleeces

• Action stations to make your voice heard and connect with others in the movement

This isn’t just a rally — it’s a call to action. It’s a fight for what we love. And a demand that our public lands stay public.

Bring your sign, your comrades and your voice. Let’s show the nation that Colorado stands united for our lands, waters, wildlife and communities.
