BLM has proposed big changes to its livestock grazing regulations that would affect more than 155 million acres of western public lands. Among other changes, the proposal would reduce public participation in grazing decisions, weaken accountability when grazing harms public lands, and prioritize livestock production over other public land values such as wildlife habitat, clean water, recreation, and ecosystem health.

Livestock grazing is by far the most pervasive and destructive use of public lands on a landscape scale. These proposed rules will lead to even more degraded streams and rivers, unhealthy wildlife habitat, and an overall decline in the resilience of our public lands. And it’s all geared toward benefiting billionaires, large corporations, and handful of individual western ranchers while cutting out the public, Tribes, and conservation organizations. This overhaul of the grazing regulations is just one more way that the Trump administration is working to privatize our public lands and promote extraction above all else.
