For years, the Grand Canyon watershed has been protected from new mining claims, but a new report shows that the Trump administration considers the ban to be a "burden" and is intent on reversing it.

The threat of mining was one of the things that inspired President Theodore Roosevelt to designate the Grand Canyon as a National Monument in 1908. That should have settled the matter for good, but the mining companies never gave up, and want to continue exploratory drilling — just a few miles from the park.

The Grand Canyon is a made-in-America treasure. **Please sign our petition today to tell the Forest Service that protecting the Grand Canyon isn't a "burden" to any American! In fact, it's an honor.**
