Trump Shreds Executive Orders 11644 & 11989 that the BLM Abused for Road Closures for 50 years
On May 29, 2026, President Trump signed an executive order revoking Executive Order 11644 (Richard Nixon in 1972) and Executive Order 11989 (Jimmy Carter in 1977). These two executive orders were leveraged by anti-motorized access federal agencies like the BLM for 50 years to close historical access to our public lands. Without County Commissioners and State Representatives helping to protect legal public highways on our public lands, the BLM has closed down hundreds of thousands of miles of roads across the West over the past 30 years.

Public Land Jurisdiction web site dedication
The PLJ web site is dedicated to helping educate the general public and elected representatives across the United States regarding legislative jurisdiction on federally managed public lands. This topic is considered “controversial” by some representatives in western states. Jurisdiction on federal lands is not controversial, its 100% documented and completely verifiable. The last Inventory Report on Jurisdictional Status of Federal Areas within the States was in 1962. It was the only federal inventory report ever procured and we all should be thanking President Eisenhower for the report.
By educating state and local officials it will ultimately help all who recreate on our wonderful federally managed public lands.
