The wise-use movement generally advocates for greater access to and use of natural resources, including development of lands and privatization of public resources. It often opposes what it perceives as excessive environmental regulation. Upholding the Endangered Species Act as currently written does not align with the movement's goals, as this act can restrict land use and development to protect species, which the movement might see as an obstacle to its objectives.
