Congress Rejects New Endangered Species Cooperation Rule.

This Congressional resolution aims to nullify a new regulation issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service concerning how federal agencies must cooperate to protect endangered and threatened species. If passed, the new rules governing interagency coordination on federal projects (like infrastructure or energy development) and wildlife protection will not take effect. This action maintains the existing procedures for evaluating the environmental impact of federal projects.
