Rep. Ral Labrador, R-Idaho, issued the following statement in response to todays decision by the Obama Administration on the greater sage grouse: I welcome the Administrations decision against listing the greater sage grouse. A listing would have immediately wreaked economic havoc across the West. However, the accompanying imposition of new federal management plans undermines much of the good work done at the state level. Governors, private property owners and other stakeholders have spent years crafting plans that protect habitat while allowing the development of natural resources, sustainable use of rangeland and recreational access. Unless an overreaching federal government respects the wisdom of state-level conservation efforts, the sage grouse wont recover and the new federal restrictions will undermine local economies. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
