Tester has been the leader on LWCF for a very long time. His work is what Daines & Gianforte piggyback off of. I applaud Daines for saying the right thing, almost. He doesn't need to follow Bishop on "reform" of a program that works incredibly well as it currently stands, but it fits his narrative of wanting to eliminate protections on public lands in favor of development. Throwing the bone of increased access is his way of greenwashing what is essentially an anti-conservation record during his time in congress.
Gianforte is a criminal who needs to be sent back to his McMansion where he can yell at kids for fishing on his river.
