- The federal government provides billions in subsidies to public lands ranchers, with the majority of the benefits going to a small number of wealthy entities like billionaire Stan Kroenke.
- Kroenke, owner of the Denver Nuggets, pays a steep discount to graze his cattle on over 500,000 acres of public lands, while the land has been degraded by overgrazing.
- The Trump administration is working to further expand and deregulate the public lands grazing program, despite concerns about environmental damage and the concentration of benefits among a few large operators.
