Today, the Public Lands Council (PLC) congratulated Sen. John Thune on being selected as Majority Leader for the 119th Congress:
“Ranchers across the West have something to celebrate with Senator Thune, a champion of livestock production and rural communities, being selected by his peers to be Senate Majority Leader,” said PLC Executive Director Kaitlynn Glover. “His work protecting grazing rights on public lands and streamlining the federal permitting process is in lockstep with the needs of livestock producers – who are in dire need of regulatory relief. Ranchers stand ready to work with the soon-to-be Majority Leader to finally reduce the prevalence of catastrophic wildfires by unleashing the benefits of grazing and voluntary conservation work.”
