Our public lands are not up for grabs. 

Trump wants to abolish the Chuckwalla and Sáttítla National Monuments, in yet another thinly veiled attack on California. 

We're not going to let him get away with it.

More than 16 million acres of public land could be for sale in California if Republicans pass their Big Ugly Bill.

Ridiculous.

Keep public lands in public hands. https://t.co/s3g4Gv1tNp
