[UPDATED 6/16] Summary & Analysis of SENR Reconciliation Bill Text

The Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee budget reconciliation bill text released June 11, and updated June 14, includes a range of extraordinary giveaways aimed at privatizing public lands and advancing energy dominance at the expense of public lands and resources.
Key takeaways on the public lands sell-off title:

The bill forces the arbitrary sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management lands in 11 Western states over the next five years, and it gives the secretaries of the interior and agriculture broad discretion to choose which places should be sold off.

Over 250 million acres of public lands are eligible for sale in the bill, including local recreation areas, wilderness study areas and inventoried roadless areas
