Not at all surprised to see the entire Freedom Caucus in Wyoming sign on to this crap. How that clown show continues to gain support in Wyoming is a total mystery to me.

Commissioners decline to support Utah lawsuit over BLM lands - Bitterroot Star
by Michael Howell In a two to one vote, the Ravalli County Commissioners recently rejected a resolution expressing support for the State of Utah lawsuit before the U. S. Supreme […]
Ravalli County Commissioners recently discussed whether or not to support the lawsuit. Thankfully they voted 'no' in the end but the discussion was interesting.
"Commissioner Greg Chilcott spoke repeatedly in favor of the resolution. In moving to approve the resolution, he said, “Distilled down to the basic question, the question that’s being asked is whether the federal government can hold unappropriated lands. There’s a lot in there, but at the end of the day the question is, can they hold unappropriated land? It has long been argued on both sides as to where state sovereignty falls in this. Can states manage lands? In some cases, I don’t think states can. But these are unappropriated lands… The question is not whether they can be taken out of public ownership. In fact Utah has expressed that it is not their intent to take public lands and make them private… But I think the states in some cases can manage public lands and I believe personally that the best management is management that is closest to home. I think it’s a question that’s been out there for decades and it’s time to put it to bed one way or the other.”"
