A commission made up of Native American tribal leaders will support a massive land exchange inside Bears Ears National Monument.
In a letter to the Committee on Natural Resources, the Bears Ears Commission announced they would be backing Congressman John Curtis' bill that proposes a land swap because"it will result in greater protections for the significant cultural landscape of the Monument."
In exchange, the federal government gets more land inside Bears Ears National Monument, which has seen its boundaries created, reduced and then restored under the past three U.S. presidential administrations.
