Last week, our CEO joined some of our staff on Capitol Hill to meet with lawmakers about protecting public lands and waters. Highlights included productive discussions with Nevada Senator Catherine Cortez Masto about the Southern Nevada Economic Development and Conservation Act, which recently passed a crucial Senate subcommittee. We also connected with New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich regarding protection for New Mexico's culturally significant Caja del Rio landscape. These meetings represent our ongoing work to connect local communities with federal decision-makers, ensuring that conservation legislation reflects the needs and values of the people who know these lands best. Through sustained engagement with Congress and community stakeholders, we're working to secure lasting protections for our nation's most valuable public lands and cultural sites.

Today's designation is a long-overdue recognition of the harmful legacy of Indian boarding schools, which the federal government used as a tool of cultural erasure. By recognizing and learning from these historic sites and the stories tied to them, our nation can better address their intergenerational impact and work toward building a more just and inclusive future. Read our statement on today's designation here: https://lnkd.in/eDYWFiAG #MonumentsForAll
