History

In 2000, Trout Unlimited extended their tax-exempt status to include a new organization known as the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Alliance (TRCA).[4] Trout Unlimited, in addition to its fiscal sponsorship of the alliance, also funnelled funds to the TRCA from the Pew Charitable Trust. This arrangement continued until 2002 when the TRCA applied for their own tax-exempt status, began receiving funding from the Turner Foundation, and changed its name to the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership.

Positions on the Environment

The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership works to maintain federal control over public land. [5]
