"Today's designation is the product of hard work and relentless determination of thousands of Arizonans from diverse backgrounds and interests, including Arizona tribal communities, local leaders, conservationists, sportsmen, and many more -- all with a shared passion for protecting Arizona's air, land, and water for future generations. I'm honored to help make the Grand Canyon National Monument a reality so Arizonans and visitors alike can continue to enjoy the beauty of Arizona's national treasure."
