Dianne Feinstein’s Million-Acre Land Grab Falters
27th November 2015
Feinstein’s seven-year quest to convince Congress to sequester over 1560 square miles of the Mojave Desert into three new national monuments under her proposed ‘Desert Conservation and Recreation Act” has gone nowhere. Feinstein has argued that the area she wants designated as ‘Mojave Trails, Sand to Snow and Castle Mountains’ is home to mountain lions, the California desert tortoise and bighorn sheep. But the real effort is to ban off-roaders, hunters and miners.
Feinstein is the Nurse Ratched of the U.S. Senate.
