Washington,
October 14, 2020
Rep. Chris Stewart (R-Utah) reintroduced the Grand Staircase Escalante Enhancement Act (H.R. 8446) which aims to create Utah’s sixth national park, the Escalante Canyons Park and Preserve. Rep. Stewart originally introduced this legislation in the 115th congress (H.R. 4558). Following the bill’s introduction, Congressman Stewart released the following statement: “Whether you want guaranteed access or long-term conservation, the Escalante Canyons National Park meets your goals. By providing for a strong local voice in park management, the Escalante Canyons Park and Preserve is pioneering management that works collaboratively with those who live and work in this area. This legislation invites those who want to experience the beauty of Utah, our paleontology and ancient history, and the local culture to come enjoy this part of the state.” – Rep.
