Trump Targets Roadless Rule in Push on Protected Forests
TRUMP TARGETS ROADLESS RULE by Adam Zyglis, politicalcartoons.com
The cartoon shows Donald Trump at the controls of a yellow excavator that has already damaged the U.S. Treasury building. His thought bubble calls for breaking the other Roadless Rule while a sign marks protected forests ahead. The image comments on efforts to open national forests to development by repealing the 2001 Roadless Rule. It links the policy shift to broader questions about federal spending and regulatory priorities. The visual places the Treasury in the path of the machine to suggest fiscal or institutional costs alongside environmental changes.
