“I’m glad to see the administration heed my calls to safeguard Nevada’s public lands that have little to no potential for oil and gas development. This commonsense rule will ensure we are prioritizing lands that are actually suitable for development, instead of wasting time and money on speculative leasing. I’ll keep working to pass my legislation to codify this change into law and protect Nevada’s outdoor spaces.”
