Trump dramatically cuts size of two national monuments held sacred by tribes

The News

President Donald Trump has approved a significant reduction in the size of two national monuments in Utah: Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante. Each monument will lose approximately 1.5 million acres, opening the land to potential development by corporate and oil and gas interests. The decision, which reverses protections established by previous administrations, has drawn criticism from Native American tribes who consider the areas sacred.
