Bill overview
This bill, the Protecting Our Land from Federal Overreach Act of 2024, aims to limit the federal government’s ability to use eminent domain for electric transmission lines and to strengthen state control over the placement of these facilities. Specifically, it prohibits the use of federal funds for acquiring land through eminent domain for new or modified transmission lines. The bill also ensures that states can object to the construction of transmission lines within their borders, potentially blocking federal projects.
