This is in reference to the Bears Ears National Monument.  Please help by contacting your Representatives in Congress @ (202)224-3121, and ask that they oppose HR 4532 which will turn over "to county officials, the Utah Stat e legislature, the Utah delegation, and Native American representatives picked by President Trump, rather than the sovereign Tribes. In addition, H.R. 4532 only considers and includes 2 of the 5 tribes who hold ancestry here. Finally, H.R. 4532 would ratify the boundaries set forth in President Trump's bone-chilling proclamation." Just like the GOP Tax Bill that recently passed and was signed into law,  the  is still another sham.  Utah Diné Bikéyah are  asking this be done before January 9 when the hearing is scheduled.  Thank  you in advance!
