This week, the U.S. House of Representatives passed three Republican bills under suspension of the rules. House Committee on Natural Resources Ranking Member Bruce Westerman (R-Ark.) issued the following statement in response:
"I'm pleased the few remaining legislative days of 2022 are yielding bipartisan wins for our constituents. Congressman Johnson's and Congressman Curtis's bills will amend wilderness designations in their home states, providing greater access for outdoor recreation enthusiasts and improved wildlife habitats.
Senator Rounds's bill repeals archaic laws impacting tribal communities, allowing Native Americans to move forward without these outdated statues weighing down current law. I'm grateful to these members for their hard work on this legislation, and was honored to support its passage."
