Congressman Michael K. Simpson
2312 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington DC 20515
Vote YES for H.R. 2584 Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act
This letter is to bring to your attention on how conserving the United States' national and state parks as well as other recreation areas benefit our nation. The proposal is looking to keep the parks open instead of shutting them down which in turn, does not benefit the people who are looking for fun, healthy things to do. I believe that making recreation available gives people an opportunity to commune with nature and gives them a sense of belonging to the land.
Different companies such as the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and many others that were established will shut down and thousands of people will be out of jobs. The animals and vegetation in this areas will either be abandoned, moved, or worse--destroyed. Maintaining and regulating the water, land, etc. will not deplete our natural resources, thus preserving for future generations a healthy environment.
Your past actions and support on the issue have been greatly appreciated, and as a health educator, I encourage you to vote "yes" to H.R. 2584. If I can provide and further information, please contact me at 555-123-9876 or vinni003@d.umn.edu.

If the potential lose of animals and plants don't concern congress, maybe the job cuts and lack of tourism will!
