![["The Taos Pueblo Council is advocating for the restoration of the Blue Lake Area, which was seized unjustly by the Federal Government. They support H.R. 471, which would place 48,000 acres of the area in trust for their people and maintain it as a wilderness. They oppose Senator Anderson's proposal, which would reduce the protected wilderness area to 4,600 acres and allow commercial harvesting of timber. They argue that the entire Rio Pueblo watershed holds religious significance for their tribe and should be protected."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_009_2_67_11_0005.jpg "\"Struggle for Blue Lake: The Taos Pueblo Council's Fight for Sacred Land\"")
