ENERGY, ELECTIONS, PUBLIC LANDS

really appreciated the well-researched and in-depth reportage on the presidential candidates’ public-land policies and how they would affect the Grand Junction, Colorado, community (“Grand Disjunction,” October 2020). This critical issue is often overlooked and under-covered. I did take issue with the voices that were highlighted. The two conservationists were well-spoken and versed in public-land policy, while the two Trump supporters interviewed were focused on hyper-partisan politics and unaware of the Bureau of Land Management’s move to Colorado. I understand having readers a more nuanced perspective and a move away from the deep divide and stereotypes that were reinforced in this article.
