Across the west, those who live near and rely on public lands for their economic livelihood have suffered from new resource management plans that choose preservation over multiple use,” wrote the lawmakers. “Communities have languished from the BLM’s flat-out refusal to follow the law that mandates onshore oil and gas lease sales. Ranchers have struggled with grazing permit renewals all while staring down a new rule that improperly puts ‘conservation’ on equal footing with multiple use activities and threatening to end their businesses." Risch, Crapo and Lummis are joined in sending the letter by U.S. Senators John Barrasso (R-Wyoming), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Steve Daines (R-Montana), Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), John Boozman (R-Arkansas), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Pete Ricketts (R-Nebraska), Kevin Cramer (R-North Dakota) and 14 members of the U.S. House of Representatives. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:07:19Z |
