The public should be part of the equation, right? You don't remove the public, do you? So, when I heard that the Antiquities Act (by which President Obama might be considering designating the Bears Ears area as a national monument) requires that he not pass out advance notices of what he is doing, well, I was surprised.
It's got to be a "gotcha" moment, I've heard. It's got to be something that takes us by surprise.
All, I can say, is it is wrong. My thought, is when you find an unjust law, you change it. Congress should change the Antiquities Act. The public should be invited to the process.
