Grizzly Bear State Management Act
HR 281, the Grizzly Bear State Management Act, directs the Secretary of the Interior to reissue a 2017 rule that removed the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem grizzly bear population from the federal endangered species list. This reissuance must occur within 180 days of the bill's enactment, and the rule cannot be challenged in court. The bill directly affects grizzly bear management in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem by making the 2017 delisting permanent under federal law. It does not change hunting or conservation rules but ensures the prior federal delisting decision is finalized without judicial review.
