President Biden's move to designate two new national monuments in California promises to protect over 848,000 acres from energy development, solidifying his environmental legacy.
By establishing the Chuckwalla National Monument, the administration is creating a 600-mile wildlife corridor along the Colorado River, enhancing ecological protections and wildlife viability.
With the addition of these new monuments, President Biden has now designated 10 national monuments and expanded others, protecting more public lands and waters than any previous president.
Utilizing the Antiquities Act, Biden's latest actions not only preserve significant landscapes but also acknowledge the cultural importance of these lands to Native American tribes.
