House Resolution Regarding National Monuments Needs to Be Passed
Great Falls, MT, April 26, 2010 - The Americans for Responsible Recreational Access has recently sent out a press release regarding House Resolution 1254. This resolution is an inquiry for the executive branch of government to turn over to the House of Representatives information related to the potential National Monument designations and other public land initiatives. This resolution is in response to information that had been leaked from the Department of Interior indicating that President Obama was considering creating national monuments. These monuments would tie up more than 13 million acres of land from the public, specifically restricting OHV riding in those areas. As monuments do not require congressional or local support, it is a very effective weapon of the anti-access groups. The House Inquiry Resolution is the only means by which the House can get the requested information. |

A proposal called the Hidden Gems Wilderness Campaign to lock up 379,000 acres of public land in Colorado by designating it as federally protected Wilderness has moved a step closer to being introduced in Congress. Organizers of the Hidden Gems Wilderness Campaign on April 2 presented U.S. Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colo.) with a formal proposal to inappropriately designate 244,000 acres in Colorado as Wilderness, hoping he will introduce the legislation in Congress.
Organizers are still working out the final details before offering a proposal to designate the other 135,000 acres in the Hidden Gems campaign as Wilderness. Interactive Map |
