Senator Murkowski, Senator Sullivan and I have asked them why. In general, I do support lifting public land orders through a responsible public process. It's possible that not every last acre of PLO will be lifted, but we can't be in a position where they remain in place forever without any real reason as to why. many of those lands should be open to multiple use and potential economic development, which would be permitted separately. Most importantly, I believe we need certainty and continuity between administrations. (23:31–23:42)

CLAIM
