UNITED FOR ALASKA
Alaska’s wild lands and waters are sacred, vast, and irreplaceable.
They are alive with cultures and ecosystems found nowhere else. Yet powerful industries continue to threaten these places, the communities who depend on them, and the global climate.
For more than three decades, Alaska Wilderness League has fought back, bringing together people from across the country and standing alongside Indigenous leaders to protect Alaska’s lands, waters, wildlife, and ways of life through strong, lasting federal protections.
United, we fiercely defend Alaska.
