In the 2015 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) rumored provisions include designation of 250,000 additional acres of wilderness to the federal government. Potential land-grab provisions in the NDAA include:

  • Wilderness Area Expansion.
  • Four new national parks, and seven national park studies, which will be new parks.
  • National Heritage Areas Extension.
  • Wild and Scenic Rivers Extension.
  • Women’s History Museum.
Four federal agencies control 623 million acres of land in the U.S. - more than 27% of all surface land in the country. These figures don't include state-owned land which totals an additional 196 million acres. The feds already own 640 million acres of land, approaching one-third the total area of the United States!

These provisions would lead to more government ownership of America’s land and more restrictive land-use policies that prohibit energy development and economic activity. Click here to read more.
