A lot of people buy up the land around federal parks, and then close off access.
Nice way to get the benefit of federally managed land without paying for it.
The proposal is to revisit allowing public access to these lands.
I know of a few ranchers who charge high fees for people to hunt public land.
Totally support this. If the land is public, there must be access. If it is not public, then the taxes need to be paid. To much public land treated as private.
Seems to me there’s a simple solution. If you purchase land adjacent to public land you must grant an easement for the public to access said public land.
