DW, you are right that we should demand, in the event the land grab passes, that land never be sold and access should remain.
I personally asked that of Mike Noel and he refused to put it in the Act. There is nothing in the law that says land will remain public. Also, the law specifically sets up tools to "dispose" of public land and the bank account is already functional to hold the funds once that land is sold.
The land grab proponents know dang well that public land will be sold and have already opened a bank account for the sole purpose of holding those funds. (This is also why big corporations are the largest donors of the land grab, because they'll be first in line to buy the public land.)
There is nothing in the law that says land won't be sold. The politicians repeat it to their supporters but that has as much teeth as, "If you like your health plan, you can keep your health plan."
Public land will be sold by the state, the law allows it, the state's own study says it will be necessary to fund the budget, and the plans for the money are already in effect.
