What to Expect with Public Lands Policy in 2026 with Rebecca Gillis

To kick off our public lands policy conversation this year, we wanted to take a look back at the year we had in 2025 and what we should expect moving into 2026.

Joining me to lead this conversation is Rebecca Gillis.

Rebecca is Vice President of Government Affairs & Advocacy at The Conservation Alliance, where she leads the organization’s advocacy and government affairs strategy and helps shape its broader strategic direction.

She works closely with member companies, grantee partners, and outdoor business executives to mobilize corporate advocacy for land and water conservation and to elevate conservation priorities in Washington, D.C.

Previously, Rebecca led state and local government affairs for the Outdoor Industry Association and served in economic development roles under Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper and Denver Mayor Michael Hancock.
