Letter: Let’s speak up about Utah’s lands while we still can

(AP Photo | Rick Bowmer, File) In this Feb. 22, 2018, file photo, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, speaks on the Senate Floor at the Utah state Capitol in Salt Lake City. President Donald Trump's list of candidates for the Supreme Court, posted on White House website in November 2017 includes Lee.

I'd like to take Sen. Mike Lee and the rest of our representatives with me the next time I go camping.

We would hike the many trails offered together. Fish the many lakes together and sit around the campfire together. We might even get into a good debate about these public lands that we are on. Of course, we would have to work around the sound of heavy machinery driving by every few minutes.

If we don't speak up with our voices and our votes, this will be the norm.
