## Resource

The courts just ruled the Antiquities Act remains intact, handing a major legal victory to conservationists and shutting down Utah’s push to dismantle national monuments like Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante. Despite political pressure to open these lands for development, judges have consistently upheld the president’s authority under this century-old law — and this latest decision confirms that precedent. With the legal battle settled, officials vow to move swiftly to protect these irreplaceable landscapes, signaling that the fight to preserve America’s natural and cultural treasures is far from over.
