Arizona and Utah will keep the iconic national parks in those states open if a federal government shutdown cuts off funding nationwide. People can keep visiting 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. The economic impact of the national parks is so important that Arizona's Democratic governor and Utah's Republican governor have decided to invest state funds in keeping Grand Canyon, Zion, Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef and Canyonlands national parks open.
