National Monuments

Victory!

The Power In Nature Coalition is celebrating President Biden’s designation of Chuckwalla National Monument in the California desert and Sáttítla Highlands National Monument in Northern California.

The new designations honor Tribal requests, help boost local economies, ensure access to nature, and mark a leap forward in the State of California’s goal of protecting 30 percent of lands and coastal waters by 2030 (30×30).

This milestone builds on his significant legacy of conservation, including the expansions of the Berryessa Snow Mountain and San Gabriel Mountains national monuments. We’re proud to celebrate this achievement while continuing our work to help Kw’tsán reach the finish line for designation.

Protect an interconnected cultural, natural, and spiritual living landscape that holds Tribal history and supports Indigenous peoples today.

The Kw’tsán National Monument will protect over 390,000 acres of the Fort. Yuma Quechan Indian Tribe’s homelands, located in Imperial County.
Nestled within the Shasta-Trinity, Klamath, and Modoc National Forests of northeastern California, Sáttítla, commonly known as the Medicine Lake Highlands, are a culturally significant, geologically unique, water rich, and life sustaining region in need of greater protections.
