I rise in support of H.R. 708 and urge its adoption. H.R. 708 recognizes the increasing demand on private lands within the Jackson Hole area of Wyoming and the benefits that open space and ranching provide Grand Teton National Park. This legislation would require the Secretary to conduct a study concerning grazing and open space in and around Grand Teton National Park. Moreover, the Secretary must analyze the benefits of existing ranching and grazing operations to wildlife, the national park, and other public benefits.
