Description
The federal government controls nearly 70% of the land in Utah, and has for a long time. Is this a problem? And if so, what should be done about it?
On this episode, we discuss Utah's new lawsuit asking the Supreme Court to weigh in on important constitutional questions around federal vs. state management of land. Nic Dunn sits down with Pacific Legal Foundation Legal Fellow Ethan Blevins and Sutherland's Bill Duncan. They give an overview of the public land issue, Utah's case, and what's next in the legal process.
