Summary of Bill HR 104

Bill 119 hr 104, also known as the Arizona National Monument Protection Act, aims to amend title 54 of the United States Code to prevent the extension or creation of national monuments in Arizona without explicit approval from Congress. The bill seeks to limit the power of the President to unilaterally designate new national monuments in the state.

It seeks to ensure that any decisions regarding the preservation of public lands in the state are made with input from Congress and the local community. Overall, the Arizona National Monument Protection Act is a measure aimed at increasing transparency and accountability in the designation of national monuments in Arizona, and ensuring that such decisions are made in a collaborative and democratic manner.
