Wyomingites Protest Public Lands Sell-Off Plan
Tap title to read story
Hundreds protested in Cheyenne, Wyoming, against Utah Senator Mike Lee's proposal to sell off public lands near towns. While initially proposing a sale of over 3 million acres, Lee scaled back the plan after initial pushback. The protest, attended by both Democrats and Republicans, highlighted strong opposition to the proposal, even in its revised form. Concerns remain about the lack of affordability guarantees in the bill and the potential impact on hunting and recreation. Wyoming's congressional delegation hasn't publicly opposed the plan, further fueling the protest.
