Covering the Supreme Court ruling on Sakett v. EPA and the BLM’s proposed Conservation and Landscape Health rules Cow Dust and Cattle Country

Howard Hutchinson from AZNM Coalition of Counties joins us to go over the coalitions work on the BLM's attempt to rewrite law and history to the detriment of multiple users of BLM lands.  
But first an update on Sakett V. EPA the recent win in the US Supreme Court and what it means for property owners across the country trying to curtail government overreach.
Comments on the proposed BLM rule are due June 20, so please gear up to make them soon.  We will be posting Howard's draft comments and the rule itself but start with the podcast and get your fix on the issues.

It is extremely unfortunate that members of New Mexico’s congressional delegation do not understand the intent of congress on federal lands, and are willing to risk the stability of ranching and other multiple uses on these lands.  The following press release indicates there is no balance on our economically based federal lands and ranches.  This is not true theres massive wilderness designations and national parks already set aside for this supposed balance that other uses do not have access to.  ----more--------more----

BLM’s new rule puts conservation on an equal footing with other multiple uses of public lands. It allows land to be leased for conservation alongside grazing, drilling, mining and even more extractive uses of public lands. No valid existing rights to use BLM lands for these purposes will be affected. The rule seeks to correct a system that has been wildly imbalanced:
90% of BLM lands are open to drilling;
60% are leased for grazing;
Only 14% are managed for conservation.
