Eliminating Disease-Carrying Pests and Restoring Enjoyment of the Great Outdoors
Key claim: The President is directing federal action to eliminate disease-carrying pests so people can more fully enjoy outdoor recreation.
Abstract
(Presidential Document · Executive Office of the President)
Why this matters
Vector-borne disease risk (ticks, mosquitoes) directly shapes who uses public lands and how federal land managers budget for pest surveillance and control. A presidential directive focused on pest elimination for recreation purposes signals operational priorities across Interior, Agriculture, and health agencies, though the practical reach depends on follow-on agency plans and funding.
