LOS ANGELES (AP) — President Joe Biden is establishing two new national monuments in California that will honor Native American tribes, the White House confirmed Tuesday, as Biden seeks to conserve at least 30% of U. S. lands and waters by 2030 through his “America the Beautiful” initiative.
Proclamations set to be signed Tuesday will create the Chuckwalla National Monument in Southern California near Joshua Tree National Park and the Sáttítla National Monument in Northern California.

The change is estimated to raise the credit scores by an average of 20 points and could lead to 22,000 additional mortgages being approved every year, according to the bureau.

I don’t care who she caucuses with and I admire her courage to switch, knowing the vitriol she would face.
