Watching @SenatorLeahy's farewell address with emotion -- I first got to know him in 1989 as a member of the Judiciary Committee staff. His kindness and wisdom and savvy have been invaluable to me (and so many other staffers) for so long.

Our public lands define our identity as a nation.
They are a birthright that we pass down from generation to generation. And they unite us.
That’s what we honor today as we designate Camp Hale-Continental Divide a national monument.
