Top Issues

Environment / Energy Landowners can take legal action to challenge mining and other extractive industries that can damage land or pollute the environment. This can include requesting information about operations, filing complaints, and challenging compensation and management of environmental liabilities. Landowners can also take legal action to ensure proper closure of abandoned mines and ecological restoration. Environment / Energy Drawing lines on a map and designating places as parks or preserves can give them legal status to prevent dramatic conversions. Environment / Energy A voluntary legal agreement between a landowner and a land trust that permanently limits land use to protect its conservation values. This can help preserve wildlife habitats and prevent development, while still allowing the owner to live on and use the land. Conservation easements are also known as conservation restrictions or conservation agreements. Education Pro parental rights.

Government Reform Reduce government employment: at the State level and the County level. Housing Rent is too high.
