Mike Lee had the House, the Senate, the chairmanship, and the whole Utah delegation. He still couldn't bring his attack on Grand Staircase to a vote in either chamber. The clock killed it. 1.87 million acres still standing. You did this.
Republicans run the House. They run the Senate. Mike Lee chairs the committee with jurisdiction over public lands. The Utah delegation backed the resolution to a member. In more than three months, they couldn't bring it to a vote in either chamber.
Now watch the spin. Lee and Maloy called it a procedural outcome, not a reflection of support for the policy. Read that again. They want you to believe the senator who chairs the committee accidentally ran out the clock on his own signature fight.
