" The Disposal of Excess Federal Lans Act of 2017 (or H.R. 621) would have directed ?the Secretary of the Interior to sell certain Federal lands in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming, previously identified as suitable for disposal, and for other purposes.? This would have encompassed 3.5 million acres? roughly the same size as the state of Connecticut.

Many saw this as a threat to access to hunting and fishing on public lands, so Chaffetz felt it was wise to withdraw the bill and let it die in the House Natural Resources Committee."

Our Government Could Sell every-F'N-Thing they Own & Still Couldn't Bail Their selves out of the Hole They've Dug!

It's Amazing How many of them would like to try it though!
 
I wrote Chaffetz a letter a couple of years ago and told him of my opposition to the federal lands being given to the states or sold off. He responded that he didn't agree with me and why.

He and Senator Hatch were the only two that responded. Hatch said he didn't have a stand and would have to do more research on the issue (threw the letters away that that close enough to what was said).

I hope they are seeing the light.
 
Your right there BESS,
I contacted my Congressman about the same thing. He told me he supported the bill.
I told him you don't throw good money at old, bad debt! First rule of business. I also explained that since he and other Politicians are the one's that cause this debt especially here in my state for them to pony up their assets, homes, savings acts, they kids college funds, instead of us paying more taxes and selling off our state and federal assets!
