New Mexico’s Otero Mesa supports:

✅ Wildlife habitat
✅ Local businesses
✅ Indigenous history and culture

The expansion of Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, since its designation in 2015, would safeguard public lands that are sacred to the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation – Molok Luyuk -or “Condor Ridge.” @POTUS #ExpandBerryessa by adding #MolokLuyuk to the national monument!
