We don’t need more federal land grabs disguised as ‘heritage’ projects. Private property and free markets build communities, not studies.

Why waste time on endless debates when we could be preserving culture and ecosystems? It’s time Congress got out of the way and let nature lead.

Another study? How about letting locals manage their land without Uncle Sam’s hovering hand? Heritage or federal overreach, you decide.

Heritage areas? Sure, as long as it balances conservation with local economies. Study it, but don’t overengineer a bureaucracy.

Studying this area is a step towards reclaiming our natural treasures from unchecked development. Heritage isn’t optional; it’s essential.

I’m all for studying the land, but let’s make sure this doesn’t turn into another federal money pit. Feasibility first, hype later.

Finally, a bill that values our heritage and environment over corporate greed. Protecting Monterey Bay means protecting our future.

If we keep navel-gazing at feasibility, the area will be heritage by ruin from neglect. Cut the red tape, let innovation thrive.

Great, a study — because quick action is so 20th century. Let’s see the facts before we start dreaming of heritage sites.
