The Trump Administration wants to Open Areas of the Chaco Canyon, Colorado's Wild Lands, and the Grand Canyon, to Oil and Gas Development and Mining, which would Forever Damage these Beautiful Public Spaces and Risk the Water and Health of Indigenous and Local Communities.
Big Polluters could soon be Drilling for Uranium and Oil in some of our most Iconic Outdoor spaces, Threatening the Water of Indigenous Communities and Local Ecosystems.
For Millennia, Indigenous Communities, including the Havasupai, Hopi, Hualapai, and Navajo Nation Communities, have Lived in and Around the Grand Canyon, and the Pueblo People. as well as their Ancestors, the Chacoan People, have relied on the Chaco Canyon Region for their Way of Life and Cultural Heritage.
Uranium Mining and Fossil Fuel Extraction around these National Parks would Tear into Land that is sacred to these Communities and Expose their Water supply to Toxic Pollution.
We must Support the Indigenous Communities Leading this Fight and Stop the Trump Administration from Selling Out the Grand Canyon and Chaco Canyon.
We have a Short Window to Act. The House will soon Vote on Three Bills:
- The Grand Canyon Centennial Protection Act (H.R. 1373)
- The Chaco Cultural Heritage Area Protection Act (H.R. 2181)
- The Colorado Outdoor Recreation and Economy (CORE) Act (H.R. 823)
These Bills will Permanently Protect Areas around the Chaco Canyon, over 200,000 Acres of Colorado's Wild Public Lands, and The Grand Canyon, from Extractive Development.
This Vote is coming up quickly and we still don't know how Every Member of the House will Vote. To Pass this Bill without any Anti-Environment Riders, we must make sure House Representative knows just how Important this Fight is.
