🔥 2,000 New Mexicans showed up in Santa Fe to tell @SecretaryBurgum that our public lands are NOT FOR SALE! Stay strong and don’t let the oligarchs and billionaires steal our land, water, and heritage. #PublicLands
Thank you for putting this together, @WstrnPriorities! Seems like this administration’s philosophy is if you tell a lie enough times people (including yourself) might start to believe it.
The man in charge of our public lands appears to know nothing about national monuments.
Is he really this ignorant, or is he lying on purpose?
Read the blog and let us know.

From Ogden to Bluff, Utahns across the state showed up to stand with Tribes and show support for Bears Ears and Grand Staircase national monuments on Monday.

🚨NEW ANALYSIS🚨 From @amprog: The 119th Congress has introduced 7 bills to sell off or transfer public lands, 26 to auction lands and waters for dirty energy, 15 to remove protections, and 33 to weaken bedrock conservation laws. #publiclands americanprogress.org/article…
.@POTUS and @Interior @SecretaryBurgum censoring difficult history doesn’t change it. It only harms our understanding of the present. Preserving accurate narratives is an act of respect for those who lived them. americanprogress.org/article…
.@POTUS just rolled back protections for the NE Canyons & Seamounts Marine Monument, opening the door to commercial extraction in a fragile deep-sea ecosystem. This hurts marine life & coastal economies and communities. #SaveTheSeamounts 🌊🪸

Thanks to whoever is behind this! But it's not just @ElonMusk.
@realDonaldTrump, @SecretaryBurgum & @gop are all ruining our @NatlParkService with severe firings and budget cuts. Once the envy of the world, our National Parks face a dark future.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum is selling off our public lands to fund tax cuts for his millionaire and billionaire buddies.
Our parks are NOT for sale.
It's time for him to undo the harm that’s already been done and keep public lands in public hands.
.@POTUS is putting our most sacred marine sites at risk! His rollback today of #AntiquitiesAct protections for Pacific Islands Heritage Monument is just the start. Our public lands and waters shouldn't be for sale to the highest bidder. #ProtectthePacific

We just signed a @theactionnet petition: Tell Governor Lujan Grisham to oppose Catron County’s misinformed anti-wolf resolution to declare a state of emergency. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

“This is not about government efficiency…As they gut our land management agencies, they’re going to say, ‘Oh my gosh, we can’t manage these public lands.’ …This is about them trying to sell your public lands.” Tracy Stone-Manning, former BLM director missoulacurrent.com/rally-pu…
Learn how @realDonaldTrump is trying to destroy America's national monuments & public land protections.
@SecretaryBurgum, please don't let @POTUS
do this.
I'm glad @EarthJustice, @protectwildutah &
@GrandCanynTrust stand ready to sue if this happens.

#PublicLands advocates are overflowing in the NM State Capitol right now, rallying against @realDonaldTrump’s administration efforts to gut public lands agencies and sell off public lands that belong to all Americans. Keep your tiny hands off our public lands!
Early impacts of @ElonMusk and his team’s purge of the federal workforce are already hitting America’s parks and #publiclands, while oil and gas industry loyalists shift remaining government resources to prioritize corporate profits. americanprogress.org/article…
