Establishment of the Frances Perkins National Monument
President Biden used the Antiquities Act to establish the Frances Perkins National Monument in Newcastle, Maine, protecting approximately 2.3 acres of the Perkins Homestead. The National Park Service will manage the site and develop a management plan to preserve historic objects and interpret Frances Perkins' legacy as the first woman Cabinet Secretary and architect of New Deal labor and social programs. The Frances Perkins Center retains reserved occupancy and use rights for up to 25 years.
Establishment of the Stonewall National Monument
President Obama used the Antiquities Act to designate Christopher Park in New York City as the Stonewall National Monument, the first national monument dedicated to LGBT civil rights history. The approximately 0.12-acre site, across from the Stonewall Inn, is placed under National Park Service management with a required management plan within 3 years. The proclamation withdraws federal lands within the monument boundaries from public land, mining, and mineral leasing laws.
