He also met with Major General Michael Turley and other leaders of the Utah National Guard to learn more about the Guard's role in the state's vaccination efforts. Senator Romney then joined state leaders in hosting Interior Secretary Deb Haaland’s visit to Utah, and took part in site visits and meetings as part of the ongoing review of the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments.

Following a request from Senator Romney and delegation members to visit Utah, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland visited the state this week and met with stakeholders as part of the Administration's ongoing review of the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments. Senator Romney met with the Secretary, and spent a day touring Bears Ears and meeting with local and tribal leaders. During these meetings, the group reiterated their request that the Administration work with stakeholders to craft a collaborative, consensus legislative solution that reflects the input of the people most directly impacted. The political back-and-forth that our communities have been subjected to for more than 25 years must end.

The Bonneville Shoreline Trail provides great outdoor recreational opportunities for Utahns, but several wilderness-designated areas along the trail are hampering full use of the trail. Senator Romney and Rep. John Curtis (R-UT) reintroduced legislation to adjust the boundaries of the trail to ensure that construction can be fully completed and Utahns can enjoy its wide range of recreational opportunities for many years to come.
