Show full title

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 "National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska Integrated Activity Plan Record of Decision".

What this bill does

  • This joint resolution cancels a 2022 federal rule that restricted oil and gas leasing on nearly half of Alaska's National Petroleum Reserve.
  • The change affects oil and gas companies seeking to lease federal land and Alaska Native communities that rely on the area for wildlife and subsistence.
  • The reversal takes effect immediately upon passage and restores a previous 2020 management plan with fewer environmental restrictions.

  2. 02

    What tradeoffs exist between increased federal revenue from oil and gas leases versus potential environmental impacts on the reserve's wildlife and ecosystems?

  3. 03

    How does the 2020 management plan that this resolution reinstates differ in environmental protections from the 2022 rule it overturns?
