I am deeply committed to helping my constituents remain competitive.

This has long been an active Subcommittee, and I appreciate your diligence in reviewing pending legislation.

These inflexible regulations and other requirements imposed by the Federal Government often outcompete the good intentions of federal employees.

However, Utah's most productive lands in terms of forage, production, and agricultural value happen to be owned by private individuals.

The Federal Government owns 47 percent of all the land in the western United States.

I have worked with some of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, Senators Rosen and Fischer and Schatz...

They have proposed a $3.5 trillion tax-and-spend blowout, one that would increase Americans' taxes by over $2 trillion.
