About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · May 23, 2024
Referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.
This joint resolution would reject a rule issued by the National Marine Fisheries Service on April 5, 2024, that governs how federal agencies list endangered and threatened species and designate areas critical to their survival. If approved, the rule would be invalidated and would have no legal effect. The resolution was introduced by Representative Hageman and four other House members and was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources. This type of measure is a Congressional Review Act action, which allows Congress to overturn agency regulations through a streamlined process. The specific details about what aspects of the endangered species listing procedures the original rule changed are not provided in this resolution text.
