Hi Friend, 

GOOD NEWS! This morning, President Joe Biden designated the Avi Kwa Ame
National Monument in Southern Nevada, and we are so excited that the
administration has decided to protect this sacred land. We’ve worked hard
the last two years, alongside our incredible partners and Nevada’s tribes,
to get to this moment and to see this land honored. I’m so lucky to be
here in D.C. to see this designation happen!

ICYMI: Avi Kwa Ame is considered sacred to ten Yuman-speaking tribes (the
Fort Mojave, Hualapai, Yavapai, Havasupai, Quechan, Maricopa, Paipai, and
Kumeyaay) as well as the Hopi and Chemehuevi Paiute. It’s also home to
some of Nevada’s landmark species, like the desert bighorn and the desert
tortoise — and to some of the oldest and largest Joshua trees on the
planet, some rising to more than 30 feet over 900 years. 

With this designation, President Biden is telling Nevada’s tribes and
residents that his administration respects our beautiful public lands, and
will do everything they need to protect them. We’re so grateful to our
Congressional Delegation, including Congresswoman Dina Titus who led the
bill in Congress, for encouraging POTUS to protect Avi Kwa Ame!
