Latest Action · July 18, 2024
Referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.
This joint resolution seeks to block a Department of the Interior rule on "Conservation and Landscape Health" that was published in May 2024. If passed, the rule would be nullified and have no legal effect. The resolution uses the Congressional Review Act, a procedural tool that allows Congress to overturn federal regulations within a limited timeframe. The bill was introduced by Representative John Curtis and seven co-sponsors, primarily from western states with significant public lands. The legislation does not involve any new federal funding or establish a timeline beyond the standard Congressional Review Act procedures.
