Congresswoman touts her legislation, ‘The 30 x 30 Termination Act,’ at summit in Nebraska
WASHINGTON – Rep. Lauren Boebert met with conservatives in Nebraska on Earth Day to drum up opposition against the Biden administration’s goal to conserve 30% of U.S. lands and waters by 2030.
The “Stop the 30 x 30 Summit” featured Boebert and other opponents of the America the Beautiful initiative, also known as the “30 x 30” plan.
Boebert’s office did not respond to multiple requests for comment or provide an outline of her planned remarks at the summit.
Media strategist Gabriella Hoffman, who attended the event, tweeted a comment attributed to Boebert at the summit: “If you truly want to cut carbon emissions, don’t lock up our lands. Allow us … to be stewards of that land.”
