words.ere washingtonian they hardly suggest that lincoln was a crusader searching for monsters to destroy was it however that u.s. foreign-policy displayed such remarkable continuity from the 1890's?o the because i think it was self contained by four prudential checks. first was the doctrine associated with the james monroe, but drafted by john quincy adams, and indeed implicit in the writings of almost all the founders, which declared the new and old world's to be worlds apart, separate spheres, and to keep european powers from mucking around in their neighborhood, americans had to refrain from mucking around in their neighborhood. was one.nroe doctrine containment was westward expansion, precisely because no american, no sane american, wanted to risk the nations manifest destiny by picking fights with overseas powers. third, with the lessons learned from the collapse of republics both ancient and modern. , at leastry americans the elites, new their classics, new them very well, and they caesarn fear of a julius or a cromwell or robespierre in their midst, and so they fiercely guarded th

it's no wonder then that utahans feel more threatened by the antiquities act than washingtonians. this is a law that past presidents have brandished as a weapon to cut up entire sections of our state. mr. president, this is far from the first time that i've taken to this floor to speak out against the antiquities act abuse. and it certainly won't be the last. but i'm encouraged by yesterday's executive order with president trump and secretary zinke on our side. i believe that we can plot a path forward to correct past abusebuses, and forth a new precedent -- and forge a new precedent for future monument designations. the president's executive action signifies a critical milestone in the effort to include local voices in the management of our public lands. as the trump administration reviews various national monuments, we must replace the top-down approach of past administrations with a grass-roots strategy that engages local leaders, state officials, and members of congress in the decision-making process. bringing all stockholders -- stakeholders, excuse me, to the table is essent
