President Trump just issued another dangerous executive order, this time directing Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to begin the process of rolling back the Antiquities Act. His goal: shrink — or even eliminate — some of our most important and recently established national monuments and open them up to industrial development, including fossil fuel and mining industry. And his specific targets seem to be the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments in Utah. Others at risk include the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument off Cape Cod.

Sign the petition demanding that Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke stand up to President Trump and maintain protections for America’s cherished national monuments and wildlands.
