US Interior Dept withdraws land exchange around Alaska refuge
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland on Tuesday withdrew a land exchange around a national wildlife refuge in Alaska, reversing a 2019 move by the administration of former President Donald Trump, the Interior Department said.
