New monument to protect border wall
This bill would create the Southern Border Wall National Monument in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. It would cover about 289,920 acres, including parts of the wall and nearby lands. The Department of the Interior, through the Bureau of Land Management, would run it. The Secretary would sign agreements with other federal agencies and with tribal governments that oversee land inside the monument where wall sections sit. A map would be kept at BLM offices for the public to see. A general management plan would be due within 3 years after funds are first provided, and then sent to the House Natural Resources and Senate Energy and Natural Resources committees. The monument’s purpose would be to protect the southern border wall from alteration.
