A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management relating to "Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process".
This joint resolution (SJRES 78) seeks congressional disapproval of a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) rule issued on April 23, 2024, regarding "Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process" (89 Fed. Reg. 30916). If passed, it would block the BLM rule from taking effect, preventing it from governing oil and gas leasing on federal lands. The bill directly affects energy companies and land users involved in federal mineral leasing by halting the implementation of this specific regulatory process. It is a procedural measure under federal law, not a new policy.
