An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Save Bears Ears & Grand Staircase Escalante from Trump Rape & Pillage EO

180 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

I am sorry to use crude language, but the actions proposed by Trump that I write to you about today are a crude and wicked desecration of sacred places. ............................................................................................ Trump is a twice impeached president, a felon, and a convicted rapist: it is time for Congress to put the brakes on and stop his ongoing attempts to rape and pillage the United States. .................................................................................................................................................................................. As I am sure you are aware: Trump signed proclamations on July 13, 2026, reducing the size of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments in Utah by about 90%, cutting nearly 3 million total acres to open land for mineral mining and resource extraction. ............................................................................................................................................. Ruining a legacy that we hold in trust in order to benefit crony private profiteers is wrong. Desecrating the sacred places of the people who were here before the European settlers arrived is beyond wicked. ...............................................................................................................Please use all the means available to you to call attention to this wrecking and stop it. Please reply to let me know what you will be doing.
