Federal Lands Ranchers Congratulate President-Elect Trump

WASHINGTON (November 6, 2024) – Today, the Public Lands Council (PLC) issued the following statement on the results of the 2024 election: 


“We congratulate President Donald Trump on his victory and stand ready to renew our work with him to cut government red tape and unleash the full potential of our nation’s natural resources. It is no secret that livestock production on public lands has long been targeted by an over-involved bureaucracy that has hindered ranchers’ work to conserve lands, while raising the best food and fiber in the world,” said PLC President and Colorado rancher Tim Canterbury. “Moving forward, it’s critical President Trump restores transparency to the federal rulemaking process so that input from real cattle and sheep producers is actually heard and not ignored. Ranchers are in dire need of regulatory relief and PLC is excited to work with the Trump Administration to streamline the federal permitting process to improve the health of America’s vast rangeland.”
