These places, like so many other public lands (including Oregon’s own Cascade-Siskiyou), hold cultural, environmental, economic, and recreational value that belong to all Americans, not just a select few. Honoring Native American cultural artifacts and celebrating the incredible biodiversity of this place should be of paramount importance for our nation’s leaders. Instead, the administration is opening the door for private industry to strip them bare. “Americans overwhelmingly support protections for these remarkable treasures—and we will continue our fight to keep public lands in public hands.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
