In reply to the discussion: Senator who told EW to 'take a seat' got a not-so-warm welcome back to Montana [View all]2naSalit
(104,780 posts)20. There is so much more to his than
just the ACA, which we just got last year.
We have National Parks, Wilderness areas and lots of BLM and USFS lands at stake and under threat of extractive industry, like the gold mine next to YNP and the AB Wilderness not to mention a ton of other natural resource issues that will affect much of the western states if these places are not protected from the ravages of mining, timber harvest and overgrazing. Tourism is a major chunk of our economy even if many don't see it that way... all those folks care about is getting theirs at the expense of everyone else.
