The official print number for this legislation is S 2820.
Limiting Presidential Power in Designating National Monuments.
This bill significantly restricts the President's ability to establish national monuments on public lands. Under the proposed rules, such designations would be temporary, expiring after six months or at the end of the current Congress unless explicitly approved by Congress through a separate law. This shifts the power over the long-term protection and use of vast public lands from the Executive Branch to the Legislative Branch.
Key points
Presidential designations of national monuments will become temporary, requiring Congressional approval to be permanent.
Temporary designations expire after six months or at the end of the current Congress, whichever comes first.
Land that loses its monument status cannot be designated as a national monument again for 25 years.
