WASHINGTON, D.C. – President Obama today requested $1.1 billion for the Bureau of Land Management in Fiscal Year 2015, which will enable the BLM to continue to responsibly manage the development of conventional and renewable energy on public lands, conserve valuable wildlife habitat and cultural and historic resources, and implement innovative landscape scale management approaches. ...
The President’s Budget request maintains funding for renewable energy at essentially the 2014 enacted level, $29.2 million, providing the BLM with the resources it needs to continue to aggressively facilitate and support solar, wind and geothermal energy development as Interior works toward the President’s goal of approving 20,000 megawatts of renewable energy on public lands by 2020.

That’s nothing. The proposed budget for the wasteful, harmful and, unconstitutional Dept of HHS is over $1 TRILLION.
That should take care of those damned ranchers in Nevada!
The BLM drove 52 (?) ranchers out of business in the area around the Bundy ranch. Bundy is the last one standing.
The objective is to end beef production in the U.S., as well as enriching Harry Reid.
This is nothing but a racket. The BLM and other government agencies pushes legitimate users off the land and clears way for the environmental fascists to take over. The government then subsidizes the solar or wind power investors with millions or even billions of our hard earned dollars to build their plants. The investors (many of whom are foreign corporations or government entities) are enriched off our tax dollars. Many of these plants are doomed to fail even before starting and we the taxpayers absorb spectacular losses. But the corrupt politicians and environmental groups conducting the scam, skim their share off the top (and from the “investors”) so all are happy whether the plants are going concerns or not.
We need to go after these people starting with the top levels of all three branches of government and bring them up on RICO charges, racketeering, conspiracy to defraud, mail fraud, bribery, corruption, high crimes and treason.
How much of that goes to para-military operation in intimidation shakedown activities...
Who provides oversight on those operation???
“enable the BLM to continue to responsibly manage the development of conventional and renewable energy on public lands”
Uh No!
Who provides oversight on those operation???
Good question. What we need to do is elect Jeb Bush president. He’ll keep a close eye on this. /s
Does that mean more JHP ammo for the BLM?
How much of that budget will be for Body Bags ?
Thank goodness for “/s”!!!
;-)
I was almost going to send you my dry cleaning bill...
“President Obama today requested $1.1 billion for the Bureau of Land Management in Fiscal Year 2015”
I’m agreeing with Buckwheat’s budget request. We want the BLM armed with 1.2 billion rounds of cop-killer bullets for their Glocks which have an effective range of 50 meters.
clear signs of bigger government. Their not even trying to hide this. $15 million for a grouse? What the hell is a grouse? More government waste at the expense of taxpayers. Where is congress in this? They are complicit unless they defund these huge govt. agencies.
