摘要

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) wants the Obama administration's help in protecting public lands in southern Nevada, including Gold Butte and a desert valley that includes one of the world's largest pieces of earthen art. Reid on Oct. 24, 2014, sent a letter to Interior Secretary Sally Jewell asking her to convene a public stakeholder meeting in Las Vegas to discuss various conservation efforts in southern Nevada, including his legislation to protect Gold Butte, Garden Valley and the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument.
