AI Summary This summary was generated by AI from the bill text. AI can get information wrong.

This joint resolution would stop a recent Forest Service rule on law enforcement and criminal prohibitions from taking effect. If Congress approves it, the rule would be canceled and treated as if it never had legal force. In simple terms, the resolution is Congress saying it does not want the Forest Service’s new rule to be used.

  • The resolution uses the congressional review process to reject a Forest Service rule issued by the Department of Agriculture.
  • The rule being blocked was published on November 25, 2024, and it deals with “Law Enforcement; Criminal Prohibitions.”
  • If the resolution becomes law, the Forest Service rule would have no force or effect.
