Phil Lyman: Seen his best friends killed due to federal overreach

At best, we’re the #1 federally managed colony in the nation. Between the directors of the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service, two unelected administrative offices in Washington D.C. have more control over what happens on Utah land than the governor of our state.

None of the major policy decisions coming from Washington that impact Utah's lands suggest the existence of a good faith negotiating partner [seeking] to find consensus. As governor I would assert our coordination rights as a state on every federal land policy change to ensure that every federal land management decision that hurts Utah is litigated to the full extent of the law. Like Wyoming, I would make sure we have a dedicated fund to ensure that every adverse federal decision is litigated. 

Phil Lyman: Get real about bona fide attacks on our elections
