Bill Summary: HRES 951 (119th Congress)
HRES 951 is a resolution that facilitates the consideration of several bills aimed at amending existing environmental and regulatory frameworks in the United States. The resolution outlines the procedures for debating and voting on the following key pieces of legislation:
H.R. 4776: This bill seeks to amend the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, clarifying ambiguous provisions to streamline the environmental review process. It aims to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in project approvals, potentially benefiting federal agencies and project developers by reducing delays.
H.R. 1366: This legislation proposes the establishment of multiple hardrock mining mill sites and creates the Abandoned Hardrock Mine Fund. This fund is intended to address environmental issues associated with abandoned mines, benefiting local communities and ecosystems affected by mining operations.
H.R. 845: This bill mandates the Secretary of the Interior to reissue regulations that would remove the gray wolf from the Endangered Species Act’s list of endangered and threatened wildlife. This action is likely to impact wildlife management policies and state-level conservation efforts.
H.R. 3616: This legislation requires the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to review regulations that could affect the reliability of the bulk-power system, thereby influencing energy policy and grid stability.
H.R. 3632: This bill amends the Federal Power Act to modify requirements for service adequacy and mandates that operators of electric generating facilities notify relevant authorities of planned retirements of certain units, impacting energy supply and regulatory compliance.
H.R. 4371: This legislation amends the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 to strengthen efforts against child trafficking, enhancing protections for vulnerable populations.
The latest action on HRES 951 involved a motion to reconsider, which was laid on the table and agreed to without objection, indicating a procedural step in the legislative process. The resolution sets the stage for critical discussions on environmental policy, energy regulation, and human trafficking protections.
