Thank you, U.S. House Representative Juan Ciscomani, for speaking up against selling Mt. Lemmon, Sabino Canyon and other cherished ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ public lands. I’m a Marana resident, former town council member and board member for the Friends of Ironwood Forest National Monument. I know how important these places are to ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ns, no matter how they vote. We hike, camp, hunt and find refuge on these shared national lands. They protect critical wildlife habitat. Yet there are many special places in Southern ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ that are still at risk, including Ironwood Forest National Monument. This monument, 30 minutes outside of Marana, offers outdoor access for southern ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ns. I applaud Rep. Ciscomani for his support of public lands. Now, I urge him to continue to be a champion for these beloved places by telling the administration to leave Ironwood Forest alone.
