(Salem, OR) -- Oregon Governor Tine Kotek has asked President Biden to designate the Owyhee Canyonlands as a national monument before he leaves office. It's located in Southeast Oregon, and it's known for beautiful landscapes. Eastern Oregon Congressman Cliff Bentz says it's a classic example of crying wolf. He says the national monument designation would draw more people to the region, instead of preserving it. Bentz and Democratic Senator Ron Wyden have proposed legislation to protect grazing rights while allowing public use, but both bills have stalled.
