IN a move that creates 4 new national monuments, and expands several national parks. Trump signed The John Dingell Conservation, Management and recreation Act into law on Tuesday. in additions to the new monuments — medger and Myrtle Evers in Mississippi, Mill Springs in Kentucky, Jurassic in Utah and St Francis Dam in California- the bills add lands to Death Valley and Joshua Tree NPs in CA, Shiloh Military park in Tennessee Ocmulgee Historic park in GA, Acadia in Maine, along with several others. But perhaps most importantly, the bill permanently authorizes the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which provides money from offshore oil and gas drilling to protect federal, state and local lands, ranging from Yellowstone NP to to the local park campground. This is the biggest conservation law passed by Congress since the Omnibus bill in 2009 and conserves more than 2 million acres, ranges from new Recreation and Heritage areas to large chunks of new wilderness in Utah, New Mexico, California , Washington and Oregon. Under a president that has tried so hard to trash our natural lands, this is a rare, but very important, win!
