Sen. Mike Lee of Utah withdrew a provision that would allow the sale of public lands for affordable housing and infrastructure.

The Senate parliamentarian ruled that Lee 's original proposal, which encompassed millions of acres , would violate budget reconciliation rules.

Lee 's revised plan would have excluded all U.S. Forest Service land from possible sale.
