v Without your voice the Green Swamp Will Continue to Grow  
         Article presents ideas and concerns; read and then write:
“The public commentary period is very important, and required by federal law, but corporate environmentalist groups conjoined with the global outdoor gear industry have developed a PR machine with the capacity to spit out literally hundreds of thousands of comments supporting vast land grabs, such as 'Bears Ears' and 'Grand Staircase-Escalante.' Donors, supporters on email lists, complicit partner organizations, and ideologically-sympathetic businesses will take talking points verbatim and cut and paste them into the comments field to be sent to the Department of Interior. It's not difficult for one corporate enviro group, Western Priorities, for instance, to blast the government with a couple hundred thousand cloned messages, giving the appearance of overwhelming support for this or that issue. The federal swamp had undoubtedly grown as a result of this tactic. But Zinke's Interior is onto the dishonesty of the big greens, and will carefully read and weigh authentic, original comments from real people will real stakes in how the federal government manages the lands and resources it controls. This makes your voice critical, and very powerful.”  Majorie Haun

Reasons why San Juan Never Needed Another National Monument 
Over 400,000 acres of Existing Wilderness designations with arguably STRONGER PROTECTIONS already existed LONG BEFORE there was a Bears Ears National Monument, within its boundaries. 
*No fracking
*No mineral development
*No oil drilling
*No mining

These Federal Wilderness Areas were Congressional designated, a truly democratic process. They've protected the Native American heritage sites under stricter protection than a National Monument ever would.

Legislation (H.R. 4532: Shash Jaa' National Monument and Indian Creek National Monument Act)...
was also introduced that explicitly BANS mining and drilling in the new monument area as well as in the land that was covered before the president altered the boundaries

Leading some to ask: "Then why was a National Monument ever needed?" The Answer is easy, it Never was Needed.

Missing from this map is also the heavily protected "Cedar Mesa SMRC" and the Natural Bridges National Monument...
Now add on the two Newest national monuments of Indian Creek and Shash Jaa'
, therefore, the former Bears Ears National Monument was never ever needed.

vIf HR4532 isn’t what you think it should be: Speak up now or end up grumbling for the next 20 years
We are the nearest people of Bears Ears and did not agree with naming a national monument on the land we use to survive. , ,The closest national monument, Natural Bridges Monument, is only a stone’s throw away from the Bears Ears region. You look at the entrance sign to that monument, woodcutting and wood gathering is clearly and proudly shown as being is completely banned.” Leland Grass


n  Wooten Expose’: Racism, Egomania, and Abuse continued, Part II                                  
n  The Long and Uncertain History of Bears Ears  I question some of these events and dates.  Does anyone have addition information?
  
This is not a difficult question for the BLM to answer. They know that they have been relying on less than trustworthy information put forward by the likes of Lance Porter. When you find out that Rose Chilcoat and Lynell Shalk of the Great Old Broads were the main source of the BLM information and that the entire narrative is based on hate for Mormons and for San Juan County you just have to wonder why those in a position to do something, choose to remain silent?” Phil Lyman

 Better yet, a Bears Ears Boycott. (see post below:

Congratulations Sheriff Eldredge and Deputies Freestone and Wilcox. I'm astonished at this statement from the AG. The AG's prosecutors were soundly defeated in court because their case was manufactured. The investigators didn't bother to do their homework, accusing the sheriff of "dry-firing" a weapon at an event that he did not even attend, and accusing the deputy of obstruction because he provided the records that proved the Sheriff was not present. The plaintiff changed his story several times. I would like to have seen the AG's office simply apologize.”  Commissioner Phil Lyman  (It looks like the AG’s office was shamed enough that they removed the link I had on this story.  E-mail me if you want to read it, and I’ll send a copy.)

  Kelly Pehrson’s reaction to the press release: “Unbelievable how ridiculous Reyes comment is. It’s like a football team that lost 50-0 and they still say they are the better team. What an ego!!!”
