Help Save Free, Dispersed Camping Near Capitol Reef National Park

After closing 612 miles of routes near Capitol Reef National Park that led to countless free, dispersed campsites, the Bureau of Land Management is now proposing to build a large developed campground.

Glen Canyon Dam Needs Same Protections as Snake River Dams

The move by the current administration to secure dams in the northwest must also be extended to secure the Glen Canyon Dam. Radical environmentalists have increased their efforts to dismantle the dam and drain Lake Powell— which provides clean, renewable energy to six states, supplies critical water to cities and farms throughout the southwest, and supports recreation and tourism critical to rural communities. We have prepared a letter at the bottom of this article to send to the White House, Department of Interior and your local representatives. Your support is needed!

DOJ Confirms Presidential Authority to Abolish National Monuments

BlueRibbon Coalition Backs Legal Opinion Affirming Presidential Authority Over National Monuments

The U.S. Department of Justice released a May 27 legal opinion asserting that the President holds the authority to shrink or abolish national monuments designated by predecessors—reversing a restraint held in place since 1938.
