Biden admin quietly consulted left-wing eco groups on plan to block off millions of acres: Montana AG
Fox News
EXCLUSIVE: The Biden administration is facing criticism from the Montana attorney general for working with conservation groups to block off millions of acres.
"Spanning five counties across southwestern Montana, this would be the largest conservation area ever proposed in America," Knudsen wrote to Williams. "The Kafkaesque scheme of environmental laws and regulations in this country already provides a nearly insurmountable obstacle to the energy, mining, and agriculture industries." Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"And this designation would be another tool wielded and abused by well-funded environmental groups to oppose all permits for responsible development on state and private land," he continued. "Most troubling, however, is how this project has come to fruition: behind closed doors and hidden from public scrutiny."
