Trump is coming for California.
It’s up to us to resist his
drill, baby, drill agenda
This year alone, Trump has tried to auction off our lands, gut our coastal authority, and rewrite the rules so the public can barely object. Courts have already shut him down twice on parts of this plan.
Now, two federal agencies are trying to hand California’s public lands and coastline over to oil and gas companies — and the billionaires who profit from them. We’ve got a comment period and a deadline for each one.
Add your name below, then get outside and show them exactly what’s at stake.
Three fights. Three deadlines. One movement.
Stop the Central California Lease Sale
Trump’s BLM wants to auction 50 parcels — nearly 36,000 acres near Kern, Kings, San Luis Obispo, and Fresno — for oil drilling. Starting bid: $10 an acre.
Deadline: August 1
Defend California’s Coast
NOAA is reviewing the law that lets California say no to offshore oil. Show up to a hearing or put it in writing.
Hearings: Aug 10–12
Comments due: Aug 22
Block the National Rollback
A proposed federal BLM rule would gut cleanup bonds, erase sacred site protections, and cut your right to comment by 90 per cent — across 245 million acres of public lands.
Deadline: August 24
Every comment becomes part of the legal record. Courts look at this when these rules get challenged — so even if you think it won’t change Trump’s mind, it changes what happens in court.
Trump sees more profits for his Big Oil Billionaire besties. We see home. Go to the land.
You submitted your comment — that makes you a Land Protector. Now put your body where your comment was. Go to a park, a trail, a coastline, a monument that’s on the chopping block. Document it. Post it. Make it impossible to look away from what’s actually at risk.
STEP 1 — GO
- Pick a threatened place from the map below — Yosemite, Sequoia, Carrizo Plain, Pinnacles, Big Sur, Mount Diablo, the coastline itself — and make a plan to go, solo or with people you love, before August 24. Print a flyer from the toolkit to post at the trailhead. Or find (or host) a meetup on the map and go together.
STEP 2 — CAPTURE
- Shoot the landscape. Shoot the details — the trail marker, the tidepool, the oak tree that’s been there longer than any oil lease. Then turn the camera on yourself. Fifteen seconds: why does this place matter to you? Here’s a script you can use, but make it your own!
STEP 3 — POST & TAG
- Post it everywhere. Geotag the location. Link the comment tool in your bio or story. Tag us (@lastchancealliance) so we can share it further.
They’re counting on you not to notice.
Every flyer, every photo, every comment is proof that somebody’s watching. Pick your fight above, go to the land below, and make sure this doesn’t happen quietly.
