The members of the Conference Committee are:

Take action: call the Conference Committee members using the numbers above today, don’t wait! Ask members to support the House figure of $50.4 million for line item 2810-0100.

And then, find your legislators here, and contact your representative and senator and request that they also urge the Conference Committee to support a $2.3 million increase in the DCR operations budget.

Since March, DCR has responded to the pandemic by keeping our parks and forests open and accessible to all. DCR facilities are critical to our physical and mental health. Please call today and support DCR’s continued efforts to keep their facilities safe and open to all during the coming months.

Remember, the park you save may be your own.
