Environment/Natural Resources

Idaho and the rest of America have a rich supply of natural resources. I support legislation that protects our environment for future generations, while maintaining private property rights and keeping in mind the needs of local communities and industry.

There must be a balance between conservation and use. Through a common sense and collaborative approach we can find workable solutions to the challenging issues involving our environment and natural resources.
