This memorial affirms the State of New Mexico's commitment to protecting Mount Taylor, a site of profound cultural significance for various indigenous nations, tribes, and pueblos. It highlights the mountain's designation as a traditional cultural property, which was formalized in 2009 following advocacy from local tribes and reaffirmed by a 2014 Supreme Court decision. The memorial expresses opposition to proposed uranium mining projects that threaten the mountain's cultural and environmental integrity, citing concerns over potential contamination of vital water sources and the long-term environmental hazards associated with uranium mining.

The House of Representatives resolves to oppose any uranium mining projects within the boundaries of Mount Taylor's traditional cultural property and urges federal and state agencies to deny permits for such activities. Additionally, it calls on Congress to reform the General Mining Act of 1872 to prioritize the protection of sacred cultural sites and ensure meaningful tribal consultation in decisions affecting tribal resources. The memorial also mandates that copies be sent to various federal and state officials to advocate for the preservation of Mount Taylor and its cultural significance.
