The Biden administration is considering designating a million acres of land surrounding the Grand Canyon as a new national monument, which would bar uranium mining in the area.

The move comes after years of lobbying by local Native American tribes and environment advocates for beefed-up protections against uranium mining in areas surrounding the second-most popular national park in the country.

Well way to go Joe. You just put the financial crush to local Indians who use this as a means of support

Push electric everything while sabotaging electricity infrastructure.

Remember that Russian uranium deal Hillary brokered back in 2015? Have they taken delivery yet?

Yah, especially if the extraction is like fracking. I was involved in such a “mine” in Texas and it was completely harmless to the environment.

Typical anti-nuke BS from the treehuggers. They know that nuclear solves the imaginary CO2”problem”, which is why they oppose it.

When they said, "Build Back Better", what did people think they meant? It meant destroying everything, first.

This is mostly in my County, Mohave County.What they are doing to rural AZ, particularly my Conservative County (Coincidence?) is criminal. They are planning on doing this without any public hearing or input from stakeholders. And this isn’t even the worse thing they are planning for us out here in the West. When I get some time, I will write a story for you guys.
