Show your support of Public Lands and National Monuments at the Nevada State Legislature!

Assembly Joint Resolution 13, introduced by Assemblywoman Heidi Swank, expresses the support of the Nevada State Legislature for the enactment and use of the Antiquities Act and the designation of Basin and Range National Monument and Gold Butte National Monument in Nevada. If passed, this resolution serves as an official document that Nevadans support the use of the Antiquities Act and want to keep our National Monuments in Nevada protected. This is especially useful if our National Monuments ever came under attack - such as a threat of a repeal. Read the full bill text here.
