Lee Applauds Gov. Herbert's Sage Grouse Law Suit
Statement
Issues: Legal Housing and Property
Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) issued the following statement Thursday, after Utah Gov. Gary Herbert announced he is suing Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to stop Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service implementation of their sage grouse management plan.
"I commend Gov. Herbert's decision to fight the Obama administration's efforts to control federal land in Utah from Washington, DC," Lee said. "Western states have a well-established and exemplarily record of implementing their own sage grouse conservation plans and there is zero need for other federal agencies to get involved."
