Take Action
Tell Secretary Haaland to protect these special landscapes
Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and her team at DOI are reviewing and assessing new national monument proposals.
Secretary Haaland has the power to make recommendations to the president regarding new national monument designations under the Antiquities Act.
NOW is the time to raise our voices. Urge Secretary Haaland to recommend designating Avi Kwa Ame, Castner Range, the Great Bend of the Gila, and the site of the Springfield Race Riot as national monuments today!
Secretary Haaland has already done so much for our national monument landscapes. Last year, the secretary established a conservation legacy when her recommendation to President Biden led to the restoration of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments—two iconic landscapes that were shrunk by over two million acres in 2017.
The groundswell of support across the nation for Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments helped encourage the recommendation to restore these lands to their full glory. We need to demonstrate that same widespread support for Avi Kwa Ame, Castner Range, the Great Bend of the Gila, and the site of the Springfield Race Riot.
Tell Secretary Haaland to recommend protecting our country’s special landscapes to President Biden now.
