Note:  To help address violence on federal lands along the border, House Republicans, led by National Parks, Forests and Public Lands Subcommittee Ranking Member Rob Bishop (UT-01), have introduced legislation (H.R. 5016) to ensure that the Department of Interior and Department of Agriculture do not prevent U.S. Border Patrol from having operational control of the border.   This commonsense bill would give Border Patrol both the authority and access to effectively monitor and protect our federal lands on the border.
