Take Action: Protect Our National Monuments!

Protect National Monuments!

ACT NOW - Tell Congress: National Monuments must remain protected.

National Monuments are a critical designation to protect clean water on public lands.

Unfortunately, there are indications that some National Monuments may lose designation in this Congress. Some of the most at-risk National Monuments are the most important for our rivers and clean water. The loss of National Monuments not only threatens our clean water but further threatens the multi-billion dollar recreation economy and puts millions of acres of wildlife habitat and cultural landscapes in danger of being lost to industrial use and development.

Please join us in sending a message to Congress that our National Monuments must remain protected. Customize your message below!

Dear {contact_data~salutation},

I am one of the majority of voters across the country who love and depend on National Monuments and other protected public lands and waters managed by the Department of the Interior. These cherished outdoor spaces are vital sources of clean water and river protection. They sustain rural economies; support multi-generational families of hunters and ranchers; and are the cornerstone of our American heritage.

National Monuments have enjoyed bipartisan support for over a century. The Antiquities Act was established as law by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1906 and has been used by presidents of both parties to protect important historical and natural treasures nationwide. Today, National Monuments protect clean water for millions of Americans as well as thousands of river miles, where Americans paddle, fish, and recreate.

I urge you to maintain National Monument protections across the country and to safeguard the public’s access to these places for the benefit of communities, outdoor enthusiasts, and, most importantly, to protect our clean water.

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.

Sincerely,
