"BILLINGS, Mont. -- Selling off Bureau of Land Management property to help cover the nation's debts is a misguided and short-sighted idea, Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., and members of the public said Monday in Billings.

Baucus hosted a public meeting at Montana State University-Billings to get input and rally opposition to the BLM proposal.

"I think it's outrageous for the United States government to sell public lands, pure and simple," Baucus said."
