[QUOTE="MarbleEyez, post: 196855, member: 1292"] It's all a big publicity joke. Both of these "National Monuments" were set up with the stroke of a pen from the Commander in Chief's. Obama created Bear's Ears National Monument the week before he left office. Just so he could give the new incumbent the final "finger" as he walked out the door. By declaring a "National Monument" it halts all production on every square inch of that land. So the people who were utilizing it for actual business were SOL. The same thing with Grand Staircase-Escalante. Clinton singed that one in right before election time to capture as many votes as he could. What Trump did was reverse the decision that Obama did (which was done 1 week prior to the end of his term), and to top it off added a little extra from Clinton's decisions back 21 years ago. I'm all about National Parks, National Monuments, and Sacred Indian Grounds but don't do these things at the end of your final term when you are weeks from leaving office. [/QUOTE]
