Forest Landowners Association (FLA) is a 501(c)5 organization. FLA is the leading advocate promoting the rights of all private landowners—regardless of size, corporate structure, location, certification status, or tax classification. FLA's efforts to protect, promote, and advocate for all private landowners expand beyond lobbying to telling landowners' stories to policy makers in terms of economic impact, jobs created, family legacy and great stewards of the resource. Since 1941, FLA has provided its members, who own and operate more than 40 million acres of forestland in 48 states, with education, information, and national grassroots advocacy, which enables them to sustain their forestlands across generations. FLA’s outreach on behalf of private forest landowners nationwide enhances their forestland management practices and stewardship, and provides peace of mind that they have an advocate working to bring them richly deserved compensation for their work that safeguards America’s forestlands. FLA provides advice, support and information to policy makers, educating them on how proposed legislation could affect private forest management, stewardship and owners’ rights. We continually represent forest owners’ interests. Our hearts are in the forests, but our feet are on the streets of D.C. and state capitals, because that’s where we need to be to protect our members’ rights. Politicians will always have their fiery debates, but we’ll be there to keep you from getting burned.
