Bill overview
This bill makes permanent two rules issued by the Department of the Interior and the Department of Commerce regarding the protection of endangered and threatened species. These rules update how federal agencies work together to consider the impact of their actions on these species and their habitats, and clarify the process for adding or removing species from the endangered list and designating critical habitat. Essentially, the bill codifies existing regulations to ensure consistent and streamlined protections for vulnerable wildlife.
