Policy News
SRM maintains a full-time presence in Washington, DC so rangelands have a steady, informed voice where federal decisions get made. Through our Policy and Public Affairs work, SRM tracks the issues that affect rangelands, shares timely updates so members can stay involved, and brings member expertise into the conversation.
Washington Watch
The SRM Policy Brief
Washington Watch is SRM’s monthly update from Washington, DC, focused on the policy news that can shape rangelands and the people who manage them. Each issue highlights timely federal headlines, breaks down what matters (and why), and includes straight-from-DC updates from SRM’s Director of Policy and Federal Affairs.
It’s also a clear way to stay involved without having to track every hearing, rule change, or agency announcement yourself. When there’s something members should pay attention to, Washington Watch helps connect the dots and points you to what to read, what to watch, and what’s coming next.
From an active Policy and Public Affairs Committee to official statements and regular policy communications, SRM shows up on Capitol Hill with one goal: conserve and support healthy, working rangelands.
