Chaffetz withdraws bill to sell 3.3 million acres of U.S. land

The death notice, written by Rep. Jason Chaffetz himself, appeared a little over a week after he filed a bill to sell 3.3 million acres of federal land in 10 Western states, an area in total nearly as big as Connecticut. "I hear you and HR 621 dies tomorrow," Chaffetz wrote on Instagram, which recorded nearly 8,000 "likes" for the announcement.
