Montana HJ24 supports Utah's lawsuit against the U.S. over federal land retention.
Montana HJ24 expresses support for Utah's legal action against the United States over the federal government's retention of unappropriated public lands. Utah argues that the federal government's indefinite retention of these lands, amounting to about 69% of Utah's total land area, is unconstitutional. The resolution asserts that this federal policy deprives Utah of its sovereign powers, including the ability to tax and exercise eminent domain over these lands.
