The president can legally sell your public land without asking Congress. Right now.

That’s not a future threat or a conspiracy theory. It’s current law.

Under a little known provision of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, the Interior Secretary can “dispose” of vast areas of Bureau of Land Management land if an administration declares the land “suitable for disposal” and claims a vague “public objective.”

No vote. No approval. No hard acreage limit.

Congress only gets notice after the fact, and even its ability to block a sale is legally shaky under today’s Supreme Court.

In the hands of an administration openly hostile to public lands this is an open door.

This is the trapdoor beneath the American West.

Share it so everyone knows about it.
