Bill Summary

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 resolution, passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives, formally disapproves a rule from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) concerning the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument's Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan. The Congressional Review Act (CRA), referenced as chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code, is a law that allows Congress to review and potentially overturn regulations issued by federal agencies. In this instance, Congress has exercised its authority under the CRA to nullify the BLM's plan for the monument, meaning the plan will have no legal effect. This action follows a determination by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), a non-partisan federal agency that audits government spending, that the BLM's plan qualified as a "rule" under the CRA.
