The Trump administration just launched a staggering attack on two of America's treasured national monuments, slashing more than 90% of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante in southern Utah.
This means roughly 3 million acres of these extraordinary landscapes are no longer protected as national monuments. Grand Staircase-Escalante is now reduced from 1.87 million acres to just 181,500 acres, and Bears Ears from 1.36 million acres to 121,100 acres.
These monuments protect wildlife, cultural and Tribal heritage and the freedom to explore our nation's wild lands. They belong to all of us, and they should be handed down to future generations, not handed over to drilling and mining interests.
You can help reverse this attack by adding your voice: Sign our petition to stand up to the administration and defend our shared national monuments.
