Dina Titus of Nevada\u2019s First Congressional District applauded the Bureau of Land Management\u2019s decision to incorporate a 1,316 acre plot of private land as part of Basin and Range National Monument.\u00a0\nThe land is home to \u201cCity,\u201d one of the most important pieces of contemporary artworks in history. Nevada artist Michael Heizer has spent nearly 50 years of his life on the project which will now share the same protections as the desert landscapes and wildlife within Basin and Range National Monument.\u00a0\n\u201cToday\u2019s announcement is a significant step in the preservation of this important piece of art and the conservation of a special piece of our nation\u2019s public lands,\u201c said Rep. Titus, who championed the effort to designate the Basin and Range National Monument. \u201cThe landscapes of Basin and Range and \u2018City\u2019 deserve to stand together in the desert, representing the nexus of public art and public space for generations to come.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://titus.house.gov/press-releases/titus-applauds-blm-move-to-protect-city"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0081641376018524, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
