I have always been a strong supporter of public lands and have voted against the transfer or sale of public lands. My position is known and well-established.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The public lands are a public stock, which ought to be disposed of to the best advantage for the nation.
I think if you buy from people who are taking care of the land, you're supporting the future of this country.
Not on my watch will we sell or transfer our public lands.
One of the things I would love for people to think about is social responsibility. If you are fortunate enough to be someone who owns land, I think you ought to be making the most efficient use of that land possible.
I am honored to have heard from so many voters, supporters, and local elected officials who have been pleased with the work I have done on their behalf. They want and deserve a leader who will aggressively pursue strong conservative policies and get results. That's exactly what I have done.
The federal government needs to do a much better job of managing our resources, but the sale or transfer of our land is an extreme proposal, and I won't tolerate it.
I have been a long and strong supporter of civil rights in my whole career. I led the fight to get the voting rights act re-enacted. I have been a strong supporter of affirmative action. I believe in it strongly.
I will work tirelessly to ensure our public lands are managed and preserved in a way that benefits everyone for generations to come.
I value public service and I'm relatively good at organizing political causes.
I think private ownership is generally superior to public because you care about the land more and it doesn't get trashed.
