Mark Kelly: Protect Grand Canyon from uranium mining

I'll never forget seeing our planet from orbit on my first trip to space--it gave me the sense that we are all in this together and an understanding of how fragile our atmosphere really is. Arizona is a beautiful state, full of treasures that we must protect for future generations. On this 50th Earth Day, we have an obligation to continue working to protect and preserve our environment, including protecting our greatest treasure--the Grand Canyon--from uranium mining."
