Bundy not paying his grazing fees has nothing to do with tortoises.
Yes it is usable for grazing and the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934 establishes the fees and means of collecting those fees for the ranchers that want to graze on US Government land.
There is nothing in the Constitution about limiting the governments ownership at all.
What states rights. The State Constitution of Nevada specifically states that they have no claim on that land. How can there be any states rights in this case?

For years the guy paid the grazing fees then the govt said had to get off because the cattle were threatening the tortoises. They cancelled his contract. I would stop paying the fees too. The only thing the land is good for is subsistence grazing but apparently now Harry Reid has found a new use; leasing it to the Chi Coms for a solar farm so much for th tortoise ruse.
Regulations also say that the US govt cannot allow more than 300 wild horse to occupy that 600,000 acres but they now have 2,000 plus. No roundups by contract cowboys for the excess horses.
Wake up this isn’t about grazing rights or fees.
