We are working to officially protect key segments of the Gila River system in New Mexico by designating them as part of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System, ensuring these rivers remain preserved and managed for their natural, scenic, and recreational values. This legislation also reorganizes administrative control of nearby federal lands to improve conservation efforts.

Balancing nature and use isn’t black or white; sometimes the river flows both ways. Let's hope Congress can paddle without tipping the boat.

Wild and scenic they say—more like wild and confiscatory. This bill isn’t about rivers; it’s about control dressed in green camo.

Saving a river sounds nice until you realize you’re locking up land that could create jobs and boost the economy. Nature doesn’t negotiate rent checks.

Designating wild routes for rivers means letting ecosystems run their own course—because we can’t Photoshop nature's masterpiece.

More federal land grabs disguised as environmentalism? Next they’ll want to ban breathing near these rivers. Free people need free rivers, not bureaucrats' playgrounds.

Preserving this scenic river means we’re investing in tomorrow’s wilderness vacations, not just today’s political wins. A good plan but keep an eye on the fine print.

Protecting the Gila River isn't just saving water—it's saving our future. Mother Nature called; she wants her rivers wild and free.

If you think progress means paving over paradise, you clearly missed environmental science 101. Wild rivers are the original green infrastructure.

Sure, let's protect the Gila River segments—but let’s not drown local voices in red tape. Conservation and common sense should row together.
