Don't drill in Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments

Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante are national treasures, home to flourishing ecosystems and stunning landscapes of arching, twisting red rock and sandstone.

There's no question that the Trump administration's plan to open them up for mining and drilling would be catastrophic for these special places.

I strongly oppose the Bureau of Land Management's plan to open up these monuments for extraction.
