Bill Summary

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management relating to "Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan".

AI Summary

This joint resolution, passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives, formally disapproves a rule from the Bureau of Land Management concerning the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument's Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan. This disapproval is enacted under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, known as the Congressional Review Act (CRA), which allows Congress to review and overturn regulations issued by federal agencies. The resolution states that the disapproved rule will have no legal force or effect, effectively nullifying the Bureau of Land Management's plan for the monument. The context provided indicates that a Government Accountability Office (GAO) opinion, printed in the Congressional Record, concluded that this specific plan qualified as a "rule" under the CRA, thus making it subject to congressional review and potential disapproval.
