No one is going to argue that the federal government can improve their management, permitting, and access policies for our public lands.
However, transferring ownership to the states is not the answer.
No one manages public lands worse than the federal government.
@SenLummis and I are fighting to put Westerners back in charge of the land they know best.

Federal land management agencies have proven their commitment to conserving public lands for future generations (not just the ones with the deepest pockets or strong political ties).
Every American holds an equal claim to our nation’s public lands and waters.

On federal lands: We generally think of Utah as a blocky polygon. But It's really just the few white areas in the map below. The rest is not the state of Utah but rather territory owned by the federal government. You can travel across Utah and never actually be in the state of Utah. Utah should be owned and operated by Utahns, not the feds.
The way the state is advertising their pitch to take ownership of federal lands is completely inaccurate.
If we don't take action, future generations won't have the pleasures we enjoy today of public land access, a foundation of our American heritage.

Public lands mean nothing if they’re not open to the public.
✅ 73% of voters in western states support local management of public lands.
Our goal is simple: to keep these lands open for the people who rely on them — ranchers, recreators, and future generations.
I’ll keep fighting for local voices in land management because those who know the land best should help shape its future.

I cannot emphasize enough that with 70% of our state controlled by the federal government, everyday life in Utah is affected by decisions made in Washington. Building roads, moving cattle, and cleaning up campgrounds all require navigating a behemothic bureaucracy that’s stacked up against the average Utahn. The people of Utah know best how to manage the land they have lived on for generations and I will continue my work with our state leaders to figure out solutions to our federally managed lands.
Three years after the first Army-Navy Game was played, a poem called “America” reflected on the United States’ journey following the Civil War.
Over a century later, the nation's willingness to persevere through deep ideological differences is a testament to the resilience of our democracy.
With the 125th Army-Navy Game, we unite in support of the men and women who have devoted their lives to service.
This is not what it seems. If you care about public land, the worst thing to happen would be transferring ownership to the state. State land boards are required to make state lands profitable, which puts all of that land at risk for public use long-term.
FINAL: Utah State 77, Iowa 69. The kids aren’t just alright, they’re fantastic. Sophomores Mason Falslev and Karson Templin and freshman Jordy Barnes won this game for Utah State. Unbelievable composure from the youngsters in a huge game, and a statement win for the Aggies.

One bad outcome will not derail your progress, but making poor choices again and again can.
Choose to stop the cycle of ruminating on your past and beating up on yourself. That does nothing except keep you exactly where you are.
Remember, you have no power over what you did or did not do in the past. But you do have power over your next move in the present.
So, let go of what happened and start focusing on making the right choice right now.
