This week, the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership announced their Public Land Access webpage, an educational resource for hunters, anglers, and all Americans who take pride in their public lands and are concerned with the threat of federal public land transfer or sale.
Spurred by Utah’s August 2024 petition for the U.S. Supreme Court to transfer Bureau of Land Management acres to state ownership, the TRCP made their position clear that the organization opposes the blanket sale or transfer of federal public lands to states.
The Public Land Access webpage details the unintended financial impacts of federal land transfer, the history of public land transfer attempts, and the intricacies of state trust land management. Visitors also have the opportunity to take action and sign a petition to keep public lands and wildlife in public hands.
