PROPOSED MONUMENT
EXPANSION MAP

Elected officials, community leaders, and local residents in the Los Angeles region are joining Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) and Representative Judy Chu (CA-28) in calling on President Biden to add 109,000 acres of public lands to the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument.

Expanding the monument is the next step in a 20-year, locally-driven effort to protect the San Gabriel Mountains. The proposed expansion area is considered the “gateway” to the Angeles National Forest and as a result is one of the most visited parts of the forest.
