Plain Language Summary
# HR 5182 Summary **What the Bill Does:** HR 5182 is a technical correction bill aimed at fixing errors in Title 54 of the United States Code, which covers national parks, public lands, and related conservation matters. When Congress converts laws into "positive law" (organized, official code format), errors sometimes occur. This bill would correct those mistakes and make improvements to ensure the laws are accurately written and consistent. **Who It Affects:** This bill primarily affects the National Park Service, land management agencies, and the various programs and authorities they oversee.
It could indirectly impact anyone who uses public lands, visits national parks, or is involved in conservation efforts, though the changes would be mostly behind-the-scenes corrections rather than major policy changes. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been voted on by the full House. Sponsored by Democratic Representative Daniel Goldman of New York, the bill addresses housekeeping issues in federal law rather than proposing significant new policies.
