@PeterCorbett1 Delgadillo’s! Congratulation’s Angel, so many weary and bedraggled science and conservation Colorado River runners were restored by the aftertrip roll through Seligman on old 66 for burgers and dogs. Thanks for keeping history going in Seligman.

It’s official! The sweeping plateaus to the south, northeast and northwest of the Grand Canyon National Park were just designated as the new Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni – Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument. https://t.co/pndTc0oShA

[Raul M. Grijalva @RepRaulGrijalva]

.@POTUS' action to designate Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni honored the struggle of Indigenous peoples who sought to protect these sacred lands.

Yesterday was a day of remembrance and recognition for generations of those who fought and advocated to preserve them.

My full remarks⬇️

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

No national treasure is grander than the Grand Canyon.

The first time I saw it, the phrase came to mind: "God’s Cathedral."

And today, I’m proud to use my authority to protect nearly a million acres of public lands around Grand Canyon National Park as a new National Monument.

[WILD Arizona @arizonawild]

Biden to talk climate in Arizona, but will he create a new monument near the Grand Canyon?

WildAZ is on the edge of our seat and very, very excited. 🤞

As part of a collaborative effort to increase diversity and be more inclusive in outdoor spaces, the AWF partnered with @arizonawild and the @A_SNFs to host this B2B Conservation Corps work project. The women were also trained and certified in Leave No Trace principles!

[Natural Resources Democrats @NRDems]

At today's hearing, @SecDebHaaland accepted @RepRaulGrijalva's invitation to visit the proposed Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument.

This is an important step forward in tribes' efforts to #ProtectTheseLands and #KeepItGrand. Thank you, Madam Secretary!

[The Wilderness Society 🌳 @Wilderness]

"This is genuinely exciting... it could have a profound impact." Agreed, @arizonawild! Great reporting from @c_m_dangelo, @HuffPost about the new proposed conservation rule from @BLMNational. https://t.co/4YafGTs9FC

[Laiken Jordahl @LaikenJordahl]

The proposed Grand Canyon natl. monument designation "is of the highest priority to the Hopi people,” said Timothy Nuvangyaoma, chairman of the Hopi tribe. “We have to protect the beauty and grandeur of this place many tribes call home.”

@GrandCanyonNPS is one of the world's most special places.

Today, @RepRaulGrijalva and @SenatorSinema joined tribal leaders to call on @POTUS to designate nearby lands as the Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument.

Let’s #ProtectTheseLands and #KeepItGrand.

[WILD Arizona @arizonawild]

A new Tribally-led proposal would protect the iconic Grand Canyon region from threats like future uranium mining. Wild Arizona joins the Grand Canyon Tribal Coalition in urging @POTUS to act now to designate Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument! #KeepItGrand

[WILD Arizona @arizonawild]

Coconino Voices: The time for a permanent uranium mining ban near the Grand Canyon is now. https://t.co/U56y2Lze8C via @azds @HECHOOnline

[Russ McSpadden @PeccaryNotPig]

Second: Federal appeals court gives Oak Flat another chance ~ Ninth Circuit will rehear Apache Stronghold’s appeal to save sacred land.

[WILD Arizona @arizonawild]

Good news for AZ's Indigenous communities...

[Natural Resources Democrats @NRDems]

GOOD NEWS! @Interior just announced $45M to support Tribal community projects that tackle the ongoing impacts of #ClimateChange.

Indigenous communities are some of the hardest hit by the #ClimateCrisis. These projects can help address that injustice.
