National Monument Threats

Hills For Everyone is concerned about proposed rollback of two National Monuments in California. Call your federal representatives and ask them to defend public lands because a threat to public lands anywhere is a threat to public lands everywhere.

☎️If you care about National Monuments or the Wildlife Corridor, call or email your federal elected officials. Tell them to defend National Monuments and maintain their status.

Signed into law by President Teddy Roosevelt, the Antiquities Act of 1906, empowers the President to declare federal lands as National Monuments when they include historic landmarks, structures, and objects of historic or scientific interest.

National Monuments include added protections to existing federal lands and protect ecologically sensitive and culturally significant sites.

Some of America’s most iconic landscapes started as National Monuments, including Grand Canyon and Acadia.

Hills For Everyone supported local designations, including the San Gabriel National Monument and its expansion. This designation overlaps with the Angeles National Forest.

Two recent National Monument Designations include: Chuckwalla (by Joshua Tree National Park) and Sáttítla Highlands (by Modoc, Shasta-Trinity, and Klamath National Forests).

Hills For Everyone supports National Monument designations because they add a layer of protection to federal lands, increase recreational access to the lands, and become economic pumps to nearby communities.

President Trump has indicated he intends to not only rollback both Chuckwalla and Sáttítla Highlands, but also open these and other National Monument lands to energy and timber exploration.

We are speaking up for public lands and ask you to do the same. Public lands belong to no one and to everyone.
