Take Action to Protect the California Desert! #MonumentsforAll
The California desert is one of the most unique and pristine places in the country. We have a unique opportunity to honor decades of cooperation, outreach, and commitments to support and protect the California desert for current and future generations. These lands deserve designations that recognize their scenic, ecological, cultural, and economic importance.
Please designate Mojave trails, Sand to Snow, and Castle Mountains as national monuments.

Why is this important?
The California desert is one of the most unique and pristine places in the country. Americans and visitors the world over have long been drawn to its stark beauty, painted mountains, iconic Route 66, fascinating wildlife, Native American petroglyphs, inspirational vistas, and storied history. These lands feature unparalleled scenery, making tourism and recreation an essential part of the region’s economy, and providing critical habitat for a healthy desert ecosystem.
Yet, the desert we love is being squeezed by two of the fastest growing regions in the nation. If we do not act quickly, sensitive water resources, popular recreation, and historic sites could be lost forever.
