But of a piece with the anti-gubmint approach of the welfare-rancher interior west and their interior west senators and reps. Absolute hostility to federal land management from ID, MT, UT, and WY.

This being a reconciliation bill, there is little recourse to stop these sales.

As to the "wrong audience" lack of response, maybe DU is just so, so tired from the mountain of shit falling on us every day. This provision gets buried.
