Trump’s Bold Move: Giving America’s Public Lands Back to the People President Donald Trump just struck another blow for common-sense freedom and against decades of federal overreach. By rescinding outdated Executive Orders 11644 (1972) and 11989 (1977), he’s opening up federal lands to greater motorized recreation access—prioritizing the American people who own these lands over restrictive, top-down rules that locked them away. For too long, Washington bureaucrats—guided by Nixon and Carter-era orders—treated public lands like private preserves for a select few. Those directives funneled ATVs, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, and UTVs into limited zones, creating overcrowding, user conflicts, and frustration for everyday Americans who just want to enjoy what’s rightfully theirs. Sweetwater County Commissioner and avid off-roader Taylor Jones nailed it: lifting these restrictions disperses users, eases tensions, and restores real balance across Wyoming’s forests and mountains. Why This Matters: Public Lands for the Public America’s federal lands—hundreds of millions of acres—belong to us, not elite environmental groups or distant agencies. Trump’s action aligns with multiple-use management: recreation, responsible access, hunting, fishing, grazing, and yes, smart development where appropriate. It rejects the false choice between conservation and enjoyment. • Freedom for Families and Enthusiasts: Riders like Jason Harris in Lyman celebrate the chance to explore new trails on lighter-impact dirt bikes. Modern technology—better mapping, low-impact vehicles, and responsible riders—means we can enjoy these spaces without the 1970s-era panic. • Economic Boost for Rural America: More access means more tourism, local business for outfitters, gas stations, hotels, and gear shops. Wyoming and states like it thrive when people can actually get to the outdoors. • Reducing Federal Stranglehold: These old orders imposed vague, arbitrary standards that favored non-motorized users and ignored technological progress. Trump’s order directs agencies like the BLM and Forest Service to update rules for broader, fairer access on equal terms. Critics, predictably from groups like the Sierra Club, cry “disaster,” warning of habitat damage, noise, weeds, and pushed wildlife. Some concerns about fragile areas deserve local, evidence-based management—not blanket bans from D.C. Responsible riders already support trail maintenance, Leave No Trace principles, and targeted designations. Over-restriction has backfired, concentrating use and creating problems. Dispersal and practical rules will help. This fits Trump’s proven record: expanding access while supporting conservation where it counts. His first term added wilderness acres, trails, and hunting opportunities. Now he’s fixing the imbalance that locked regular Americans out. The Real Agenda: Return Power to the People Elites love keeping public lands “pristine” for their own quiet hikes while telling working families, veterans, hunters, and off-road enthusiasts to stay on the pavement. Trump is saying: No more. These lands are our birthright—from the Rockies to the Appalachians. Giving Americans freer access honors the multiple-use mandate, boosts rural economies, and rejects the bureaucratic mindset that treats citizens like children who can’t be trusted on their own property. Local voices—like Wyoming’s trails councils and riders—should guide management, not national environmental lobbies. Pair this with better enforcement against true abuse, trail improvements, and modern tech, and we get sustainable enjoyment for generations. Trump is delivering on “America First” by putting We the People first on our public lands. ATV riders cheering this? They represent millions who want to recreate, explore, and pass on outdoor traditions without endless red tape. Let’s keep pushing back against the lock-it-up crowd. cowboystatedaily.com/2026/06…

Massive victory! President Trump permanently ends the federal government reign over public roads on public domain lands. This move effectively returns management of roads back to the states! Bravo president Trump! azbackroads.com/land-use/mas…

As if it wasn’t bad enough when Gary Hart suggested, just 3 days after 9/11, that the president use the attacks to advance a New World Order. Back then it was countries sharing military bases. Now it’s the U.S. and Israel co-producing weapons together? This is NWO on crack!

The United States of America is a sovereign Nation and so isn't every state and citizen. If our founding fathers were resurrected today, all of you would laugh at them and call them extremist terrorists despite the fact that they built a nation that allows you to rise to power.

Demanding a representative be a “team player” is actually communism for heaven’s sake. What is wrong with you people? America was built on principled dissent, not enforced conformity. Your ideas would be more at home in Stalin‘s Soviet Union. Something has broken your minds.

You haven't done ANYTHING good for our local farmers! All of the bills you have written, sponsored, or co-sponsored have been utter disasters for American farmers. All you have done is give more power and control to special interest groups, lobbyists, and foreign governments.

Imagine what they would have done to you during corona if they had the ability to turn off your car. None of what this government does is for your safety, it is for them to control you. Good luck to you all Long Live The Republic
