The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The president of the United States can establish a national monument by presidential proclamation, and the United States Congress can do so by legislation.
- The president's authority arises from the Antiquities Act of 1906, which allows the president to proclaim "historic landmarks, historic and prehistoric structures, and other objects of historic or scientific interest" as national monuments.
- Concerns about protecting mostly prehistoric Native American ruins and artifacts, collectively known as antiquities, on western federal lands prompted the legislation, which allowed the president to quickly preserve public land without waiting for legislation to pass through an unconcerned Congress.
