It's #WorkersMemorialDay, a solemn occasion to commemorate those who have died on the job. In Wyoming, which kills workers at the highest rates in the nation, advocates say officials are ignoring the carnage. @WyoFile @AFLCIOWyoming wyofile.com/labor-advocates-…

There could be another appeal. But if not, pretty sure that this 10th Circuit Court of Appeals decision opens up 2.4 million acres of “corner-locked” land in Wyoming, and 8.3 million acres West-wide. Wowee.
