DeMint Takes On White House 'Land Grab'

YouTube: Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) offered an amendment to stop President Obama from seizing more public land by designating them as “monuments.” Such action would immediately halt use of the lands for mining, forestry, ranching activities, and energy development which would negatively affect employment and local tax bases. Following his speech, the Democrat majority voted against the amendment, 58-38.
