                 Every year, millions of people stand at the rim of the 
Grand Canyon and marvel at its immense and spectacular landscape. It is a 
natural treasure that supports thousands of jobs, incredible wildlife and 
watersheds, and is sacred to Indigenous people. Yet greedy mining industry 
executives and officials in Arizona want to jeopardize all this. Emboldened 
by the Trump administration's anti-environment policies, these corporate 
hacks have been pushing to open new toxic uranium mines in the precious 
Grand Canyon area. It's a shockingly callous money grab at the expense of 
local communities and these iconic lands.

                  Mining in the Grand Canyon region isn't new — but it is 
dangerous and devastating. That's why, in 2012, the Obama administration 
protected roughly 1 million acres of nearby public lands, closing it off to 
any new mining claims. Of course, Trump has spent the past four years trying 
to undo that. Luckily, President-Elect Joe Biden says he opposes additional 
uranium mining in and around the Grand Canyon. But now we need him to turn 
words into action. Tell Joe Biden to roll back Trump's toxic mining 
permissions, and protect the people and wildlife of the Grand Canyon!

                  Thank you for all that you do,

                         Miranda B.

treasure now!
