Sen Doug Whitsett Oregon: Transfer public lands from feds?
by Sen. Doug Whitsett
The United States government owns more than 55 percent of all the acreage in Oregon. A total of more than 53,000 square miles, or 34 million acres, is held in federal title. Oregon has the fifth highest federal ownership percentage among all of the 13 Western states.
There’s national forest that isn’t managed by BLM, too. Caves National Monument or whatever it’s called, maybe other places too. Add state forest and that’s why OR is poverty stricken - that and the commies in Salem. (And Portland/Eugene.)
