The government has many properties that were newly built for office space, warehouse space...that have never been occupied, just sitting. Many others that were occupied and now are not. One of our TV news guys did a special report of unused federal government property in our state alone and it was staggering.
When people hear selling government land they think oh no the Grand Canyon, or picturesque nature places that people enjoy. The government owns tons of properties that are just property. Land, homes, business space in or near cities. Acres and acres of land in the middle of nowhere, etc.
Another thought, some of the issues with ranchers could be settled by selling land to some of these ranchers that already own water, grazing rights, improvements.

I wonder how many of them are named after Robert Byrd?
Exactly! Correct on every point.
