Opinion: Republican Utah can lead the way on clean energy solutions

Deseret News Share this story Steve Griffin, Deseret News President Joe Biden began his term with a flurry of executive orders, many of which were designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. While the intent of these orders may be positive, one of them is a blow to Utah and other Western states. To be specific, the administration’s decision to suspend new oil and gas leases on federal lands will do little to change the country’s energy mix while disproportionately impacting rural economies. The country’s use of oil and gas is driven by demand for those products. As long as people are willing to pay for them, they’ll keep being produced. There is a virtually unlimited supply on private land in other parts of the country that are unaffected by the order, and those communities will be happy to step up and fill the gap. This order won’t constrain the supply enough to matter. The only way to change our energy mix is to shift the demand to clean technologies.

Ute Tribe Presents Arguments On CARES Act Distribution To Supreme Court

On Monday, the Ute Indian Tribe presented arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court about the distribution of Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) funds to federally recognized tribal governments.  The Ute Tribe raised issues of whether Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs) were “recognized governing bodies of Indian tribes” as required by the CARES Act, according to a press release.

SCOTUSBlog: Supreme Court takes up COVID-19 dispute

On Monday, the Supreme Court will hear argument on that question in Yellen v. Confederated Tribes of the Chehalis Reservation. Immediately at stake in the answer is billions of dollars in federal CARES Act funding. But the outcome could also have longer-term consequences for how, and from whom, Alaskan Natives receive essential services. Remember the $8 billion #CoronavirusReliefFund for tribal governments? Well the Supreme Court is finally hearing arguments in the long-running #COVID19 dispute! First, some background. Just as, in McGirt v. Oklahoma last term, the court confronted the complex past of Oklahoma’s Native nations, Chehalis turns on the unique legal history of Alaskan Natives. Though Alaska became part of the United States in 1867, the federal government only fitfully devoted attention to the status of the new territory’s Indigenous peoples.
