Doug LaMalfa: “Now, if you were a miner, if you were anybody else, that would probably be life in prison for what they are doing there.”

So, we want in this program to not lose that land as tribe or tribal member ownership. That is the bottom line, right?

But that costs a lot of money to the taxpayers. We always say Government needs to do something. It is the taxpayers that pays for all of this.

I can cite one example in my own district. Elderberry bushes are required to be basically untouched because an elderberry beetle may come along.

I hope to work with her some more on that.
