Plain Language Summary

# Plain Language Summary of SJRES 92 **What This Bill Would Do** This bill is a "disapproval resolution" that would reject a rule issued by the Federal Highway Administration. The rule in question would eliminate existing regulations that set up management systems for the Fish and Wildlife Service's Refuge Roads Program. If passed, this resolution would prevent the Federal Highway Administration from rescinding (canceling) those regulations, effectively blocking the removal of these management rules. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill primarily affects the Fish and Wildlife Service and how it manages roads within wildlife refuges across the country.

It was introduced by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) in the 119th Congress. As of now, the bill remains in committee and has not moved forward for a full vote in either chamber of Congress. Congressional disapproval resolutions like this one follow a specific legal process that allows Congress to overturn federal agency rules under the Congressional Review Act.
