AR HR1009

Calls on the federal government to transfer title of all federal public lands within western states to the individual states where the lands are located.

Urges the United States Congress to engage in good faith communications and cooperation with western states to coordinate the transfer of public lands.

Requires western states to affirmatively cede to the federal government lands designated as part of the National Park System, National Wilderness Preservation System, or for military use, military parks, or military reservations.

Directs that if any western public lands are sold to private owners, net proceeds be paid to the Bureau of the Public Debt to reduce the federal debt.

Calls on all other states to pass similar resolutions supporting the transfer of federal public lands to western states and directs the resolution be sent to the U.S. Department of Interior, Congress leadership, Arkansas Congressional Delegation, and all state governors and legislative leaders.
