How Gov. Polis plans to keep national parks open during shutdown

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 20:10:54 GMT

(NEXSTAR) – As the clock ticks closer to the looming weekend deadline, a government shutdown was looking increasingly likely Thursday. A federal shutdown could end up being bad news for hundreds of thousands of federal workers, people who rely on government assistance to pay for food, and those with a trip planned to one of the country's 425 national park sites. Since the National Park Service is largely funded through Congressional appropriations, all 63 national parks, plus hundreds of additional monuments and sites, "are at risk of closing Oct. 1" if the government doesn't reach a deal to keep the government funded, writes the National Parks Conservation Association, a group that advocates for protecting the parks.Some national parks could stay open if states decide to use their funding to keep them up and running. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis has directed agencies to create plans to continue operations of the state's four national parks and federal lands. “Colorado’s beautiful nati...

(KDVR) — There are a few ways for you to soar like a bird — you can hang glide, you can skydive (although that’s more like falling) or you can learn to fly an airplane.FOX31 took a ride with Jonathan Prichard, who's been doing just that since he was knee-high to a Piper Cub. The volunteers vital to Colorado’s state parks “When I was a little kid, I’ll say maybe 6 or 7 years old, my dad, he flew and he’d take me up when I was little. I got the bug really early," Prichard said.Starting out, Prichard put in a lot of simulator flight time in the comfort of his own home."For me, I feel I picked it up fairly quickly. Maybe because of all the flight simulation I did at home when I was little," he said.At Centennial Airport, Prichard is enrolled in Independence Aviation Flight School where he is learning to fly without looking out of the cockpit. They call it IFR: instrument flight rules.“VFR stands for visual flight rules. That means I have to maintain separation from t...

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 20:10:54 GMT

By ANITA SNOW (Associated Press)PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona and Utah will keep iconic national parks in those states open if a shutdown of the federal government threatens access to Arizona’s orange-striped Grand Canyon and the sheer red cliffs of Utah’s Zion Valley.Most importantly for state budgets, visitors can keep spending their money near the parks.A cutoff could come Sunday.

TEMPE, Arizona (AP) — President Joe Biden issued one of his most dire warnings yet that Donald Trump and his allies are a menace to American democracy, declaring Thursday that the former president is more interested in personal power than upholding the nation’s core values and suggesting even mainstream Republicans are complicit.“The silence is deafening,” he said.During a speech in Arizona celebrating a library to be built honoring his friend and fierce Trump critic, the late Republican Sen. John McCain, Biden repeated one of his key campaign themes, branding the “Make America Great Again” movement as an existential threat to the U.S. political system. He’s reviving that idea ahead of next year’s presidential race after it buoyed Democrats during last fall’s midterm election, laying out the threat in especially stark terms: “There’s something dangerous happening in America right now.” “We should all remember, democracies don’t have to die at the end of a rif...
