Senate Republicans unveiled a bill aimed at selling millions of acres of U.S. public land, primarily in Western states, under the guise of addressing the housing crisis. Conservation groups strongly opposed the legislation, labeling it a giveaway to wealthy corporate entities. The bill, which is part of a larger GOP budget reconciliation package, allows Trump administration officials to decide which lands to sell, raising concerns over the prioritization of profits over community needs. Analysts argue that selling federal land is not a legitimate solution to the housing shortage, branding the initiative as an anti-public lands agenda.
Senate Republicans have finally said the quiet part out loud: They want to put millions of acres of our public lands up in a fire sale, destroy the investments.
