Mike Lee's recent amendments to rescind the Roadless Rule shows he doesn't care about what his constituents want. The Public Lands Integrity Act seeks to address these tactics by amending the Congressional Budget Act’s Byrd Rule, which would explicitly classify any provision involving the sale, transfer, or disposal of federal public lands as extraneous to the budget reconciliation process. By removing these land-related measures from the simplified budget reconciliation path, the bill aims to prevent backroom deals and ensure that any potential disposal of public land receives full public scrutiny and debate. The Bureau of Land Management has proposed new grazing rules that increase allowed grazing by 31% and maintain lower fees, raising concerns about the impact on wildlife and the reduction of public input on land management. The Farm Service Agency and the Natural Resources Conservation Service have released a new framework for Migratory Big Game Conservation that focuses on interagency collaboration and incentives for private landowners to manage land for both livestock and wildlife.
