We are pleased to note the Senate Ways and Means committee did not give HB 1589 and executive hearing today.  This means the bill is dead as it did not get passed out of committee to the rules committee or the floor for a vote in time to miss the establshed deadline today for bills from the opposite house to be read on the floor.  This is good news for those who wouold prefer to rely on a combination of natural gas and electricity rather than on electricity only.  Our already over-burdened electric grid would struggle to meet the demands this bill would have required leaving some with limited power and eliminated options.

Even though a "short" or 60 day session has begun on January 8, to end on March 8, the bills are pouring in like there is no end in sight!  Bills unworthy of special attention last session are attempting to be included in this session, as we run a bicameral or 2-year legislative cycle.  All bills introduced last year technically are viable this year.  Unfortunately many new bills were also introduced this year to bring the total of introduced bills to date for the two sessions to 3,053as of this writing.  Gratefully, all bills will be "dead" or not acted on next session, and to be in play would need to be reintroduced to go through the entire legislative process.  This seems to me to be a great recipe for disfunction!

REWILDING UNLEASHED!  BIGGEST LAND LOCK UP IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES IS NOW UNDERWAY!!!!

ON APRIL 3, 2023, BLM BOSS TRACY STONE-MANNING ISSUED A NEW RULE THAT REVERSED A LONG STANDING POLICY THAT ALLOWS FOR MULTIPLE USE OF PUBLIC LANDS.

IF THE NEW BLM RULE IS ALLOWED TO STAND, CONTINUED MULTIPLE USES OF FEDERAL LANDS WILL BE EFFECTIVELY ENDED IN FAVOR OF ALLOWING WELL FINANCED "ENVIRONMENTAL" ORGANIZATIONS TO PURCHASE MILLIONS OF ACRES OF "CONSERVATION LEASES" ON FEDERAL LAND.

WESTERN GOVERNORS FROM MONTANA, IDAHO, WYOMING, UTAH, NORTH AND SOUTH DAKOTA, ARE PETITIONING CONGRESS TO PASS LEGISLATION SPONSORED BY UTAH'S MIKE SIMPSON THAT WILL REVERSE BLM'S ATTEMPT TO EFFECTIVELY DECAPITATE MULTIPLE USE AND JEOPARDIZE AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE.
