Presidents Bill Clinton and Obama established the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and Bears Ears National Monument, respectively. However, President Trump reduced \u200bthe size of these monuments after a request from Republican leaders in \u200dUtah.<\/p>\n<p>President Biden, upon taking \u2064office, reversed the reduction and actually added additional acres\u200d to each monument. This move \u200dprompted a\u200d lawsuit from Utah officials, who argued that the law requires monuments to be confined to the smallest\u2064 area possible.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Judge Nuffer clarified that while President Biden&#8217;s actions could be reviewed for constitutionality, the\u200d plaintiffs challenged them on\u200b statutory grounds.
