Utah county, home to Bears Ears NMon, passes resolution calling on Biden to restore Trump cuts

SALT LAKE CITY — A resolution that said President Donald Trump’s decision to significantly reduce the boundaries of the Bears Ears Monument in southeast Utah was “illegal” was approved by the San Juan County Commission on a 2-1 vote.

The two members of the commission who belong to the Navajo Nation approved the resolution with little debate in Tuesday’s meeting.
