U.S. House Passes CORE Act
The U.S. House voted Thursday morning in favor of a massive public lands bill that aims to protect more than 400,000 acres of public land in Colorado. The House voted 227-182 strictly along party lines, sending the CORE Act to the Senate.

Public lands advocates call U.S. Rep. Tipton’s public land bill ‘sand in the gears.’
U.S. Congressman Scott Tipton unveiled a new public lands bill this week that is similar to the CORE act save for protections at Thompson Divide west of Carbondale.
