[QUOTE="Colt45, post: 105892, member: 1693"] The bill says: "The North Dakota legislative assembly encourages Congress to pass federal legislation to return those lands and mineral rights to the state of North Dakota and the North Dakota legislative assembly encourages the governor of North Dakota to work with the North Dakota congressional delegation and Congress to secure enactment of necessary federal legislation". It appears to me the land transferred will go to the state, at least initially. If the land was bought and paid for by the feds, which is we the taxpayers, then how on earth can the land be given to anyone??? Shouldn't there at a minimum be an auction of the "excess" land? This stinks like a land grab to me, and the ones getting screwed again will be we the people.[FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=3][COLOR=#008100][FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=3][COLOR=#008100][FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=3][COLOR=#008100] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
