Mojave Desert

Senator Dianne Feinstein has introduced legislation that, if passed, would protect over a million acres of the Mojave Desert. The legislation seeks to create two national monuments on the land and expand both the Death Valley and Joshua Tree National Parks. It would also establish several new wilderness areas, protect sacred Native American land and establish as permanent 5 existing off-road vehicles areas. A portion of the infamous Route 66 would also become a beneficiary of the federally protected status. The only hitch is at least 19 renewable energy companies have deigns on the land as well. Can she find them a new home?
