Extreme Heat Wave and National Park Concerns
An early-season heat wave is affecting the West, with extreme temperatures expected, particularly in Death Valley, where highs could exceed 115 degrees. More Perfect Union’s billboard campaign aims to raise awareness about the impact of layoffs at DOGE and cuts to national parks, urging the public to take precautions during the heat, as stated by Death Valley’s acting deputy superintendent, Abigail Wines. The campaign seeks to provoke debate about federal agency cuts, leveraging the National Park Service’s popularity among the public to highlight concerns over these reductions.
