"Years in the crafting, the measure will designate 367 miles of new scenic rivers and 2,600 miles of new national trails. It protects nearly 500,000 acres in California alone, and enlarges both Death Valley and Joshua Tree national parks. And it reauthorizes a crucial funding mechanism for land and water conservation that had lapsed."
So this was actually created and drawn up by other not tRump. I don't think it offsets all the public and protected lands from his pen as many now can have their resources harvested by big oil and mining. Also allows the coal industry to pollute rivers and streams again.
While a good thing we still need to overcome the stealing of our precious park and lands by private group for profit.

That and among the priorities, take back those millions of public lands being used discounted penny-to-a-dollar to ranchers who don't even bother to pay the small fees. There are more efficient ranching of planting their own feed crops for their cows.
Also little improvements for BLM, USDA and National Forests lands for access to RV campers. Like better road maintenance, water, electricity and, if it's not too much, WiFi please.
