Protections for these ancestral landscapes must reflect public values, uphold Tribal leadership, and honor the cultural and ecological significance of these places, not be driven by partisan agendas.

Reducing their boundaries—or weakening the Resource Management Plans that safeguard them—would be a political move against the will of the people and a setback to the cooperative, Tribal-informed management these places deserve.

--> Nearly half of Republicans oppose reductions This isn’t a partisan issue, it’s about protecting national public lands & honoring Tribal ancestral homelands. A clear majority of Americans are calling for unity, collaboration, and long-term commitment to our national monuments. 📸: Stephen Trimble

The formation of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (GSENM) Inter-Tribal Coalition marks a key point in the history of the Monument because it shows how intimately connected GSENM is to the multiple communities that inhabit the surrounding region.

The GSENM Inter-Tribal Coalition announcement timing is critical—just weeks after U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum called for a review of national monuments to prioritize oil/gas drilling & energy development. GSENM is among the monuments targeted by the order. open.substack.com/pub/wildword...
