A Victory for Petroglyphs!
Posted by: Toby McLeod

This just in from the SAGE Council in Albuquerque: “We won! We’re still in shock, as we’ve lost so many battles, but this was a HUGE victory for all of us and for sacred places across this earth. The final count was 52% – 48% against the Street Bonds. Thank you to all who’ve sent us prayers, money and time.” The defeat of the bond measure means that Petroglyph National Monument will be protected from highway construction for at least two years.
