Description
SJM 21 and HJM 29 support the enactment of the Federal Public Lands & Education Act in Congress. The Act is an anti-public lands bill urging the disposition of federally-owned land in the West. Although the stated intent is to help generate revenues for education, the sponsors and proponents of the federal legislation are strident opponents of public lands, not advocates on behalf of education.
Outcome
SJM 21 was DEFEATED in the Senate, and HJM 29 was DEFEATED on the House floor.
