Bears Ears oil and gas leases canceled. [View all]

You may remember Bears Ears National Monument. Obama designated it. Trump shrank it down by a lot. Biden restored most of it. The Bureau of Land Management, the bad BLM, tried to lease a big chunk of it for oil and gas. Now it appears the BLM is backing down when faced by lawsuits. If you get a chance to visit, be sure to research the rock art locations. I only got to explore a tiny bit of it, and I was amazed.
