What it does

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a rule issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that rescinds the definition of "harm" under the Endangered Species Act. If enacted, the resolution would nullify that rule, meaning it would have no legal force or effect. The action affects federal agencies and could influence how activities impacting endangered species are regulated, particularly regarding what constitutes prohibited harm to protected species. The resolution was introduced in the Senate and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.
