Protect Grand Canyon from U Mining!

January 16, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm UTC-7

Free

At Flagstaff City Hall
211 W. Aspen Ave.

Support Flagstaff City Council in passing a resolution to uphold a ban on new uranium mines surrounding Grand Canyon!

The Trump administration, mining industry advocates, and some in Congress are calling for an end to the ban, despite a 9th Circuit Court ruling upholding it.

The Council will consider the resolution at their 6pm meeting on Jan. 16. It is item 12B on the agenda.
