Take Action

Act Now to Protect National Monuments

  

Thanks to your past advocacy, we’ve achieved landmark land conservation victories, such as the passage of the Outdoors for All Act. But history reminds us that these achievements are fragile. In 2017, the Trump administration significantly rolled back public land protections and threatened to open cherished spaces to drilling, mining, and industrial use. We must protect our country’s most precious places today, or we risk losing them forever. 

Urge your members of Congress to safeguard the Antiquities Act and fight back against attacks on our national monuments.

By taking action, you will receive important updates about our work and how you can help Trust for Public Land protect public land and parks for people.

RE: Protect our national monuments

To 

Presidents have long used the Antiquities Act to protect vital landscapes and historic sites for future generations, like the Grand Canyon and Arches. These areas tell essential stories about our past and are home to irreplaceable natural landscapes and cultural resources.

Yet despite Americans' love for these special places, our national monuments and public lands face significant threats. During the last Trump administration, Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments lost protections, opening these iconic landscapes to long-term development, habitat loss, and the desecration of cultural sites and historic artifacts.

Please take action to safeguard the Antiquities Act. We must protect our country's most precious places today, or we risk losing these irreplaceable treasures.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
