Overview
This renewal grant to the Conservation Lands Foundation would continue support for its successful efforts to encourage the president to create new national monuments on public land. To date, the current administration has created nine national monuments and expanded one other. During the term of this grant, the Foundation hopes to see at least two more monuments created and will demonstrate broad public support for several more. The Conservation Lands Foundation will use public education, research, and outreach to build support for this campaign.
