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 "Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan".
H.J. Res. 151 seeks to block a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) rule that established management guidelines for Utah's Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The resolution, introduced in March 2026, uses the Congressional Review Act to request Congress disapprove the rule, which was issued in January 2025 and submitted for review. If enacted, the resolution would prevent the rule from taking effect, meaning the BLM would not be required to follow the specific management plan outlined in that rule. This action directly affects the monument's management, as the rule governed activities like land use and conservation within the protected area.
