Congressional Western Caucus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Congressional Western Caucus
The Congressional Western Caucus is a caucus within the United States House of Representatives composed of Members of Congress who promote Western and rural interests in the United States Congress. All current members of the caucus are Republicans but the caucus is open to Members of Congress from all political parties. The caucus is dedicated to the principles of multiple use, private property, limited government and local decision-making, while working to sustain a vibrant Western economy and maintaining a commitment to protecting and enhancing the environment〔() Western Lawmakers Fight to Keep Sage Grouse off ESA List〕 for present and future generations. == Background == Former Representatives James V. Hansen, Bob Stump, Joe Skeen and Barbara Vucanovich founded the Congressional Western Caucus in 1993 during the 103rd Congress. At the time, the principal reason for the creation of the caucus was to explore the possibilities of finding ways for the states to manage some or all of the federal lands within their borders. Today the Western Caucus has grown to include over 40 members of Congress. Building on the successes achieved under Rob Bishop's chairmanship, and at the direction of the current Chairman Steve Pearce, the Congressional Western Caucus remains a leading advocate in Washington, D.C. for public land users and many important western industries such as energy development, mining, ranching, farming and recreation.
