After President Donald Trump issued proclamations taking an axe to GRAND STAIRCASE-ESCALANTE NATIONAL MONUMENT and BEARS EARS NATIONAL MONUMENTin Utah, conservation organizations, represented by Earthjustice, filed a lawsuit attacking the order on Grand Staircase-Escalante on Dec. 4 as an abuse of the president’s power. On Dec. 7, nine conservation organizations, represented by Earthjustice, filed a lawsuit attacking the Bears Ears order, charging that the president violated the 1906 Antiquities Act and the U.S. Constitution by eviscerating the monument.

Earthjustice, on behalf of the Center for Food Safety and Center for Biological Diversity, filed a lawsuit on Nov. 28 in federal court challenging the Trump administration’s approval of the enormous groundwater-mining and pipeline project through the MOJAVE TRAILS NATIONAL MONUMENT in Southern California.

Earthjustice is representing the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, Natural Resources Defense Council, The Wilderness Society, Grand Canyon Trust, Sierra Club, and Great Old Broads for Wilderness in a lawsuit to compel the Interior Department, Bureau of Land Management, and the White House Council on Environmental Quality to respond to seven Freedom of Information Act requests for information related to the Trump administration’s ongoing review of national monuments.
