Angered by the Obama administration’s work to protect the Arctic
National Wildlife Refuge from oil drilling, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said that administration “is willing to negotiate with Iran, but they won’t negotiate with Alaska.”
According to the Salt Lake Tribune: Rep. Ken Ivory, R-West Jordan, said he was told by a
terrorism expert that forests are now a terrorist target and argued that
the fire risk would be reduced if they were managed by the states
instead of the federal government.
Rep. Don Young (R-AK)...
“mocked” 78 members of Congress who asked the Secretary of the Interior
to protect gray wolves. Young — who has long fought protections for land
and wildlife — claimed that their districts would benefit from
releasing wolves in urban areas because “you wouldn’t have a homeless
problem anymore.”
