Utah sues Biden over move to restore 2 national

the lawsuit have for years been repeated by Re-
publicans in court and in campaign speeches.
The legal challenge from Utah and right-leaning
counties had been expected since Biden made the
move in October 2021, when he called Bears Ears
“a place of reverence and a sacred homeland to
hundreds of generations of native peoples.” It’s
the latest twist in a yearslong debate spanning
three presidential administrations.
In a joint statement on Wednesday, Gov. Spencer
Cox and Utah’s entire congressional delegation

The part of southeastern Utah where the two

some of the country’s most heated land manage-

Bears Ears, which was designated a Nation-

unique because land management decisions are

That decision opened parts of the monuments up
for mining, drilling and other development. Low

interest from energy companies in the lands that
became unprotected when Trump downsized the
monuments, including a large coal reserve found
in the lands cut from Grand Staircase or uranium
on lands cut from Bears Ears.
