Senator Ben Adams revises public lands amendment language to allow acquisition of new rights
Summary
Senator Ben Adams introduced RS33134, a revision to a proposed public lands amendment that adds language allowing the acquisition of new rights; he described the change as minor, reflecting months of input, and the committee voted to introduce the RS.
Senator Ben Adams presented RS33134 to the Senate State Affairs committee, describing a minor change to a proposed constitutional amendment on public lands.
Adams said stakeholders provided input since he last brought the amendment forward and the change — added language on line 16 — "allows for the acquisition of new rights." He characterized the revision as modest and said it "brings comfort to some, and aggrieves none." Adams asked the committee to print the RS; Senator Harris moved to introduce RS33134 and Senator Anthony seconded the motion. The committee voted 'aye' and the motion carried.
Adams framed the update as the result of further work and stakeholder feedback; the transcript does not list specific supporters or opponents during the committee meeting. The RS was introduced for printing and further legislative processing.
