Amendment SA 838 Purpose:
To establish a spending-neutral reserve fund relating to the disposal of certain Federal land. (National Forest, wildlife refuges, and wilderness areas, potentially sold)
The senate’s budgetary amendment to support this privatization carries no legal weight — it’s not a law — but does signify a troubling level of support for the privatization of public land. And make no mistake, this is about privatization and resource exploitation.
