Trump Supports Permitting Bill That Would Lock In His Assault on Public Lands
More Than Just Parks warns that the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act, written with Mike Lee and the Trump White House, would exempt oil, gas, pipeline, and mining work from environmental review and lock in the administration's public-lands approvals past Trump's term; Trump urged supporters on Truth Social to demand a yes vote, though the bill needs Democratic votes. Patagonia and REI deny backing it after appearing on John Thune's support list, and the site urges readers to press Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to kill the bill.
