Internet reports that Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives have added a plan to sell thousands of acres of federal land to raise billions of dollars to pay for Trump's massive tax cuts. This politically charged idea has met with opposition from some within the party. The plan complements a package of legislation approved by the House Natural Resources Committee early Wednesday that calls for the sale of dozens of plots in Utah and Nevada, totaling more than 11,000 acres (4450 hectares) of federal land. Overall, the committee's legislative proposal would raise more than $18 billion by increasing federal oil, gas and coal lease sales, as well as timber sales, among other means. House Republicans aim to cut spending by $2 trillion while cutting taxes by $4.5 trillion. (Jin Shi)
