Northern Arizona Protection Act
HR 5392, the Northern Arizona Protection Act, nullifies President Biden's August 2023 proclamation creating the Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni-Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument in Arizona. It prohibits the future designation or extension of national monuments within the specific area shown on the August 2023 map without explicit congressional approval. This bill directly affects federal land management in that region by blocking monument designations under the Antiquities Act without Congress authorizing them.
