Bishop: Surreptitious White House Land Grab is Shameful Executive Move, Makes Mess of Democratic Process
WASHINGTON, D.C., July 10, 2015- Today, the President announced plans to unilaterally designate more than one million acres in Basin and Range in Nevada, Waco Mammoth in Texas, and Berryessa Snow Mountain in California as monuments – totaling already six this year, and 19 since he’s been in office. Chairman Rob Bishop (R-UT) released the following statement:
“President Obama has shown complete disdain for Congress and the people of Nevada, California, and Texas. This surreptitious land grab reveals that the Obama Administration will stop at nothing to lock up more and more land, with the stroke of a pen. I condemn this shameful power move which makes states and citizens fearful that the federal government can invade at any time to seize more lands like bandits in the night,”said Chairman Bishop.
“The White House has made a mess out of the democratic process – which my Committee will now have to try and rectify. How this decree impacts people and their livelihoods – including public safety, water rights, economic development, recreation, and grazing – should be handled by Congress before a designation, not after the fact. Once again, the Obama Administration has put politics above people. Now, Congress is left to fix the mess made by the White House.”
BREAKING: SEN. HARRY REID BEHIND BLM LAND GRAB OF BUNDY RANCH
BLM attempted cover-up of Sen. Reid/Chinese gov’t takeover of ranch for solar farm
RELATED:Flashback: Sen. Reid Breaks Ground for Nevada Solar Farm Near Bundy Ranch– Sen. Reid is pushing for multiple solar farms in Nevada, not just the shelved 2012 ENN project. The Bureau of Land Management, whose director was Sen. Harry Reid’s (D-Nev.)former senior adviser, has purged documents from its web site stating that the agency wants Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy’s cattle off of the land his family has worked for over 140 years in order to make way for solar panel power stations.
Corrupt Democratic Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) working with the Chinese gov’t to take land from hard-working Americans.
Nothing new here, the BLM put about 32 ranchers out of business to free up land for the Chinese to build the solar arrays. Enviros proved adequate useful idiots like so many clueless lefties.
