When I cycled off the Rules Committee last week, I knew I’d be back in this room and at this witness table at some point. I did not anticipate it would be this soon! But, as we have all seen, events move at their own speed in the House of Representatives.

The committee will come to order.

Good morning and welcome Secretary Haaland. Thank you for joining us today to discuss the President’s FY25 budget request for the Department of the Interior.

Nearly two-thirds of the state of Idaho consists of federal land, which means that land management decisions made by federal agencies like yours have a profound and direct impact on our state’s economy and Idahoans who live, work, and recreate on or near federal lands. Indeed, most Idahoans interact with the Department and its’ bureaus daily.

The Department and this subcommittee also have the important responsibility of fulfilling our treaty and trust obligations to Tribes.
