I'm thrilled that @POTUS has expanded Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument in California. With this action, we're protecting lands sacred to Indigenous communities like the Patwin people while bolstering precious ecosystems we all depend on.

🎉 The San Gabriel Mountains Nat. Monument & Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument are expanding! Thank you @POTUS for listening to Tribes, Indigenous community leaders, elected officials, & community members & protecting these lands! #SanGabrielMountainsForever#MolukLuyuk
Great news! The San Gabriel Mountains National Monument expansion @SenAlexPadilla, advocates, and I are pushing for would give 757,000 more people—more than 60% nonwhite—greater access to nearby protected nature.

We're making history by confronting the climate crisis, not denying it.
On my watch, we'll cut our carbon emissions in half – and conserve 30% of America's lands and waters – by 2030.
Thank you to the @latimes Editorial Board for urging @POTUS to expand San Gabriel Mountains National Monument in line with my and @senalexpadilla San Gabriel Mountains Protection Act!
We have called on @POTUS to use his executive power to protect more of these treasured lands.
"Outside of training, this designation will provide space for military families to recover + reconnect from rigors of military life." #protectcadeserts@ProtectCADesert@VetVoiceFound
As a military kid (dad served 30 yrs in the Army!), couldn't agree more!

“When we look at land protection in California, it doesn’t just stop at the border of Nevada, and it doesn’t stop going the other direction, either,” Patterson said. “These lands are continuous, and the landscape is continuous.” #monumentsforall

Still buzzing after a super exciting public meeting to discuss the effort to expand the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument! Around 400 community members came together to share their thoughts with @USDA Undersecretary Homer Wilkes + @forestservice. #SanGabrielMountainsForever
Many describe the meeting as a "San Gabriel Mountains Love Fest" as supporters shared their personal connection to the land and urged @POTUS to stand up for equitable access in the LA area and use the Antiquities Act to expand the National Monument! #SanGabrielMountainsForever
