Senator Hatch has worked assiduously to arrange the President’s visit over the last several months, including a meeting with leaders of the LDS Church and an opportunity to discuss the future of our national monuments. President Trump credited Hatch for his decision to make a new monument proclamation during a phone call last month in which the President said, “I’m approving the Bears Ears recommendation for you, Orrin.” On video, Hatch said: I’m thrilled the President has accepted my invitation to come to the great state of Utah on Monday. I’ve arranged for President Trump to meet with leaders from the LDS Church at Welfare Square, which is one of the greatest symbols of Utahn’s service, perseverance, and self-reliance. He’ll also be discussing public lands, and the future of our national monuments. I believe the outcome he is planning to announce strikes an excellent balance where everyone wins. I look forward to showing the President our great state next week. On the President’s upcoming proclamation concerning the future of Utah’s monuments, Hatch said: The details of the President’s announcement are his and his alone to make, but I appreciate his willingness to listen to my advice and even more importantly, to give the people of Utah a voice in this process. I believe his proclamation, following Secretary Zinke’s fair, thorough, and inclusive review, will represent a balanced solution and a win for everyone on all sides of this issue. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
