Ute PAC

In the next few weeks Congressman Rob Bishop is attempting to push through the U.S. House of Representatives THE FIRST INDIAN LAND GRAB IN OVER 100 YEARS. H.R. 5780, the Utah Public Lands Initiative, proposes to rollback federal policy to the late 1800's when Indian lands and resources where taken for the benefit of others. In a startling lack of transparency, Congressman Bishop plans only one hearing on this 215-page bill with about 129 other land management proposals in the obscure Subcommittee on Federal Lands.
