Federal law versus federal law in court means one law is going to lose. In a recent case, the Antiquities Act lost in a case over the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.
President Barack Obama expanded the monument under the act, which contained a high percentage of O & C lands designated for logging--and county income--under the O & C Act. A federal judge in Washington, DC ruled that the O & C Act wins.
Dave Willis and Kristen Boyles, monument supporters, are not so sure. They visit with their thoughts on expansion, contraction, and legal appeals.
