HR 2316 · enacted · niche

Wetlands Conservation and Access Improvement Act of 2025

What this bill does

  • The bill delays when interest earned on the Wildlife Restoration Trust Fund can be used, pushing the deadline from 2026 to 2033.
  • State wildlife conservation and restoration programs that rely on this fund are affected by the timing change.
  • No new spending is created; the bill only postpones when existing interest becomes available for apportionment.

    How might state wildlife conservation programs adjust their budgets and projects if funding from the Wildlife Restoration Trust Fund is delayed seven years until 2033?

  2. 02

    What specific wetland restoration or wildlife projects could be affected by postponing the availability of trust fund interest from 2026 to 2033?

  3. 03

    Why does Congress believe delaying access to this already-accumulated interest serves wetlands conservation better than making it available in 2026?
