National Monument can be reverted back -- and worst case, private use and profit.

Hmmm ... I always considered National Monuments as places for mostly "day trips" where one can visit ... but not camp/stay overnight

and,

National Parks as places that also include campsites/camgrounds so visitors could camp for one or more days.

Am I wrong? i.e. Do some National Monuments include camping areas?

Just looked into White Sands and it seems it already have campsites before the conversion.

Yeah, National Monuments usually have small areas. This one is huge.
