New Mexico’s Otero Mesa supports:
✅ Wildlife habitat
✅ Local businesses
✅ Indigenous history and culture
✅ Clean water for communities
Yet only 2% of it is federally protected, but that can–and should–change with a @BLMNational designation. pew.org/4g4DEI5

The expansion of Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, since its designation in 2015, would safeguard public lands that are sacred to the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation – Molok Luyuk -or “Condor Ridge.” @POTUS #ExpandBerryessa by adding #MolokLuyuk to the national monument!
