On February 26, 2021, the House passed the Grand Canyon Protection Act, a bill that permanently bans new uranium mines on about 1 million acres of public lands near Grand Canyon National Park. Uranium mining has a long legacy of contaminating land and water in the Grand Canyon region, the ancestral homeland of the Havasupai, Navajo, Hopi, Hualapai, and many other Native American nations whose strong cultural connections to the canyon continue to this day. Many tribal leaders ...are raising their voices in support of the Grand Canyon Protection Act. The Inter Tribal Association of Arizona, which includes 21 tribes across the state, passed a resolution supporting the bill, citing the expansion of uranium mining around the Grand Canyon as the greatest risk to religious, cultural, and traditional land use by Native peoples in the area. Across the Grand Canyon region, tribal leaders are reaffirming the need for a permanent mining ban and urging support for a similar mining ban bill introduced in the Senate, where it awaits a committee hearing. Take Action. Urge your senators to protect the Grand Canyon
