Bentz backs Amodei bill to resolve Pershing County checkerboard lands

Jul 24, 2026

The video shows Rep. Cliff Bentz speaking in support of Rep. Mark Amodei's Northern Nevada Economic Development and Conservation Act (H.R. 2317). Bentz describes the 19th-century checkerboard land pattern created by railroad grants, its impact on small Nevada towns like Lovelock, low land values due to lack of water, and the bill's limited scale relative to Nevada's 56 million acres of federal land. He advocates prioritizing sales to adjacent long-term users and criticizes the outdated structure for stifling local economies. The segment is a congressional floor or committee statement by Bentz drawing on personal experience from ranching near the Nevada border. It references specific bill language on page 61 regarding suitable buyers and relies on historical context plus aggregate federal land statistics without additional expert guests or opposing views.
