"A uranium company lobbied the Trump administration to shrink the size of Bears Ears National Monument in Utah months before President Trump announced that he would be reducing the monument by more than 1 million acres, according to documents obtained by the Washington Post.
The campaign — along with the administration’s eventual decision to drastically shrink the borders of Bears Ears National Monument — adds to a pattern of deference to industry at the expense of public lands and the environment.
On Tuesday, Trump announced that he would be reducing the size of two national monuments — Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante, both located in Utah — after a Department of Interior review that looked at all national monuments designated after 1996. The stated purpose of the review was to decide whether the Antiquities Act, which gives presidents the power to create national monuments, had been improperly used over the recommendations of local communities.”*
