The disasters this rule will wreak on American resource production and national security are unfathomable. With no true plan for implementation, the SEC is looking to approve a never before seen financial mechanism that not only will prevent mining, logging, grazing, and other crucial activities, take away our private land rights, but will also enrich our nation's enemies by letting them control our land while forcing us to pay hand over fist for foreign resources. The proposed rule lacks clarity on listing requirements, oversight authority, a regulatory strategy, and a legal basis by which the SEC can claim authority over federal lands. Allowing this rule to go through will fundamentally change property rights in our nation, providing yet another revenue stream for activist elites while handicapping development activities that are crucial to the existence of Wyoming's communities and small businesses. I am firmly opposed to this backdoor implementation of ESG goals.
