	"description": "In an unprecedented move, Utah’s congressional delegation has introduced a resolution to throw out the resource management plan for the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The monument includes ancestral homelands of multiple Tribal Nations. The current homelands of the Southern Paiute people border it and many other Tribal Nations continue to maintain deep cultural, spiritual, and ceremonial connections to sacred places within its boundaries. Native people are connected to this beautiful land by history. Our relationship is living and ongoing. Tribal citizens continue to hunt, gather, visit sacred places, and conduct ceremonies. These practices reinforce cultural continuity and reflect Tribal ancestral responsibilities to care for our traditional places and to pass knowledge, traditions, and stewardship responsibilities to future generations. The Biden administration worked for two years with the tribes, surrounding communities, and environmentalists to create a management. It contains important resource management directives that protect our cultural resources and sacred places, petroglyphs and other art and work of our ancestors, springs, plants, and animals that are still important to our people today. Now, Republicans in Congress want to overturn the current management plan and revert back to a 2020 plan that allowed for more fossil fuel extraction endangering both the land and all the surrounding communities. Let’s be clear about what’s at stake. Without the clear roadmap for protection and conservation that the resource management plan provides, our ancestral lands and many important cultural sites within the monument would be at greater risk of looting, vandalism, graffiti, and degradation. The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument must be protected and honored as part of our shared heritage and as part of the life-giving system of Mother Earth.
