🚨 ALERT: Stop attack on Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument

Congress could unravel years of public input.

Tell Congress to stop attack on Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument    Act now A Dear Momoko, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah is under attack—again. Utah's Senator Mike Lee and Representative Celeste Maloy have introduced legislation to throw the monument's management into chaos. If successful, this move would unravel years of community-driven planning and threaten one of America's most treasured public landscapes. Tell Congress: Keep Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument's protections! The Grand Staircase-Escalante land-use plan, finalized in 2025, is the result of more than two years of collaboration with Tribal Nations, local communities, scientists, recreationists and the public. It provides a clear roadmap to protect the monument's cliffs, canyons, plateaus, and badlands—while ensuring people retain the freedom to hike, camp, climb, and explore this remarkable landscape for generations to come. Overturning this plan would risk protections for wildlife habitat, fragile watersheds, cultural resources and recreational access across nearly 1.9 million acres of public land—and reopen the door to drilling and mining that would permanently scar this irreplaceable landscape. This is part of a broader strategy to open the door to privatization and industrial exploitation of places that belong to all of us. Send your message TODAY and urge Congress to protect Grand Staircase-Escalante. Thank you for your advocacy and support. Sincerely, The Wilderness Society   Act now Mason Cummings
