Project 2025 is the agenda for the future leadership under the next Trump administration, led by the conservative think tank, the Heritage Foundation. A key aspect of this agenda is the privatization of public lands, putting at risk many of our favorite hunting, fishing, and recreation areas. These lands would be open for purchase by industries, the wealthy, and investors. The foundation has suggested that selling off these lands could address the housing crisis, but it is doubtful if it would truly tackle the affordability issue. With 15.4 million vacant homes in the country already being held for higher prices by homeowners, investors, and corporations, the impact could be minimal.
What is the stance of Tim Sheehy and other state Republicans on this issue? Sheehy claims to support keeping public lands public, but what about Senator Daines? It seems Daines influences Sheehy’s views and statements. Governor Gianforte, Daines’ superior and business associate, has faced criticism for restricting Montanans’ access to public land near his home, showing his disregard for public land rights.
