What they really care about is the fact that the price of eggs is so high. It’s hard to get a house.
we have seen in the Department of the Interior budget put forward by my Majority colleagues from Fiscal Year 2023 to Fiscal Year 2024, a reduction of about 13 percent in the National Park Service overall, and a 52 percent proposed cut in the National Park Service construction budget.
