Hi friend,

Did you know that east of the neon glow of Las Vegas, before you hit the shores of Lake Mead, there’s a treasure trove spanning over 32,000 acres ? Sacred spots revered by the Southern Paiute people, endangered flora that dazzles, and geological marvels that’ll have you gasping, “That’s in Vegas ?!”

But here’s the twist : This gem is under threat ! For years, unwelcome off-roading, littering, shooting, and illegal dumping have plagued the highly scenic area, threatening the vegetation, wildlife, sacred sites and the natural beauty.

✨ Enter : The proposed East Las Vegas National Monument ! Imagine a sanctuary that nurtures wildlife, enriches our culture, and offers recreational adventures galore.

Friend, are you ready for a mission? 🚀 Dive in, make waves, and sign the petition supporting the establishment of the East Las Vegas National Monument!

Quick peeks at what’s at stake :

• Rainbow Gardens : Not a fairy tale place but Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC). The Rainbow Gardens is home to an eco-paradise teeming with rarities like the endangered Bearpoppy.
• Gypsum Cave : A cavern dating back to 3000 BC and a place central to the religious practices and ceremonies of the Southern Paiute Peoples.
• The Great Unconformity : Rocking a whopping 1.2 billion years of Earth’s geological history.

Be the change, light the way, and let's pen a story for ages! Support the proposed East Las Vegas National Monument because it’s time to ensure accessible, safe outdoor recreation while amplifying the rich history of Indigenous people!

We did not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

In solidarity,
