Senators Barrasso And Lummis Want To Protect Iconic Wyoming National Monument Name

Devils Tower National Monument

U.S. Senators John Barrasso and Cynthia Lummis (both R-WY) have introduced a bill to protect the name of the Devils Tower National Monument in northeastern Wyoming.  Despite the fact that the monument has been known as Devils Tower since the 1800s, there have been attempts by outside groups and even the Biden administration to change the name of this well known landmark.

“As America’s first national monument, Devils Tower is an iconic landmark cherished by people in Wyoming and a famous stop for people visiting our great state,” says Barrasso. “It is important we protect the legacy of this symbolic monument for years to come.”

“As the first national landmark, Devils Tower holds great significance to generations of people across Wyoming and is one of the Cowboy State’s most cherished sights,” says Lummis. “I am partnering with Senator Barrasso to ensure we preserve this legacy and prevent D.C. bureaucrats and out-of-state interest groups from unnecessarily changing the name of this iconic and celebrated landmark.”
