House Republicans moved to undo the Biden administration’s land management plan for several states, arguing that it jeopardizes energy reliability by restricting fossil fuel and mining leases.
Republicans voted on three measures on Wednesday to disapprove the Biden administration’s Resource Management Plan Amendments for lands in Montana, North Dakota, and Alaska. The Bureau of Land Management’s RMP is an outline for managing specific public lands while maximizing their resources, but Republicans claim the amendments for these three states limit or block fossil fuel and mining production.
