MAP - Public Lands for Sale in US Senate Bill

[PLhunter]

That's my rationale take on it as well. However, part of me wonders what could have possibly emboldened him to submit a very aggressive version of what failed a few weeks ago? If he had submitted this section with a smaller provision than 500,000 acres to try and squeeze it through to establish his cause, I could understand the motive. But to come back with the "when you fail, go bigger" version leaves one to wonder.

Might just be a decoy for something smaller they are throwing in that otherwise would get out attention.

Could someone please post the Sections of the Bill relating to this “sell off”

Elected officials and their staff respond much better when you cite a specific line that needs to be changed or removed.

I believe it is this:

"Mandatory Disposal of Bureau of Land Management Land and National Forest Service System Land for Housing"

That’s just the name of a proposal. I need a number corresponding to a Section of the Bill.

“Dear Senator Moody, Please move to strike Sections XXXX.1234 and YYYY.44321 from the proposed HR1

Thank you”

As far as I can tell, that information is not available to us. Perhaps because it is in the draft phase?

The National debt will never be paid off - never. It is a political football that is used by both Parties for their agendas. These land sales will only benefit a handful of wealthy people.

Once it is gone, it is gone forever.

Mike Lee is the one pushing this so maybe we should make a list of where to boycott. What business are from salt lake and n Utah where his district is??

Utard ideas should stay in Utah and not poison the entire nation…….

Didn't Lee also introduce the SHUSH act to eliminate regulations on suppressors?

Doesn’t shock me and I bet residents of these states will want nonresident help as they pushed to decrease nonresident opportunities.

It’s only a matter of time before we have little public land available but that still provides recreational opportunities for 90% of people currently using public lands.

Even if he did, there’s plenty of other Republicans that could sponsor that legislation so we don’t have to deal with this con artist’s attempts on our public land every year.

Calling all Coloradans - you need to send emails to the following people;

Here is what I said;

I am emailing to ask you to OPPOSE ANY PROPOSAL TO SELL PUBLIC LANDS. These lands provide irreplaceable wildlife habitat, recreation opportunities and perpetual economic benefit to local communities. I am an avid user of public lands and oppose any ideas or proposals to sell them. The voice of the people is NEVER TO SELL PUBLIC lands, whether it be National Forest or BLM land.

If we fast forward in time, we will all regret selling public land for a quick money making endeavor. Please do not be on the wrong side of these decisions.

I don’t understand the angst against residents? Each American citizen owns the same amount of public land. No one in New Mexico has complained about non-residents. In fact we are trying to get rid of the outfitters pool to give non-residents better odds and more tags. Residents and non-residents should have equal opportunity to book with an outfitter or not. There should not be any landowner tags that can be used to hunt public lands. Take those land owner tags and put them into the public draw. That way residents will actually get 90% percent of something and the non-residents would have 10% of something.

That way If a non-resident or resident for that matter, draws a tag for a unit they can choose to book a hunt on private land with an outfit like Infinite Outdoors or an outfitter if they choose for that matter. At the present time the big-game hunting is almost completely commercialized for non-residents. There are so few tags in the public draw for residents that we go for years without drawing any big-game tags at all. Few non-residents can afford to spend 30K per season to hunt big-game in another state. Obviously the outfitters will put the hate on residents and Infinite Outdoors so they can keep more slices of the pizza.

But know this. If Public lands disappear, so will the land owner tags and then residents and non-residents alike, even the wealthiest of non-residents, won’t be hunting.

Did you just equate selling 250 million acres of public land to making your pew pew quieter??

Touché sir you win

Much less so than you indicated that all of Lee's ideas are bad.

FYI, it's not 250 million acres, but let's not let facts get in the way of emotions.

Quite a few expert public lands hunting advocates have gone through this in the last few days. When you drop through Sen. Lee’s “fuzzy logic” it could very well be up to 250 million acres that are eventually sold. And not just across 11 states either….Once again, educate yourself and listen to the “Your Mountain” podcast on the subject.

I thought the bill, even Lee's portion of it, was capped at max .75% over the next 5 years? Min .5% and max .75% is what everybody's been citing.
