| Friend, |
| Last year, you celebrated alongside us when Trump’s plans were derailed and President Biden restored the boundaries of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments. |
| But mining companies, off-road vehicle groups, and powerful state officials in Utah have not been celebrating. Instead, they're suing the federal government in an attack on the Monuments and the 1906 law that authorizes the President to designate and protect them. |
| Now, Earthjustice is stepping in to defend Bears Ears, Grand Staircase-Escalante, and the future of ALL National monuments. Friend, will you fight alongside us? |
| In response to a shortfall in donations, longtime donor George Martin has agreed to match all online contributions $3:$1 until Dec 31. When you donate today, you can make a remarkable impact. |
|
|
| This lawsuit not only threatens Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante, it threatens the future of our federally protected public lands by attacking the Antiquities Act itself — a century-old bedrock law that safeguards some of America’s most beloved places. |
| We simply cannot allow fossil fuel and uranium companies to destroy the land, looters to vandalize sacred Indigenous sites, and off-road vehicles to devastate sensitive ecosystems. |
| Friend, with the state of the economy, many of our supporters will not be able to make a year-end gift this December. If you have the means to contribute, your support as we weather economic uncertainty is incredibly important. |

| Please make your year-end gift today to support this and over 500 other legal battles in defense of our planet. |
| The earth needs a good lawyer. And together, we can make sure it has one. |
|

Sincerely,
Tom Delehanty
