The resolutions were introduced by representatives from New York, Arizona, Nevada, Massachusetts, and Utah. These house resolutions range in purpose from designating a park as a national commemorative site to conveying land for the expansion of existing cemeteries.

According to the subcommittee's website, the Subcommittee on Federal Lands addresses matters related to the National Park system and the National Wilderness Preservation System, national trails, wild and scenic rivers, and other locations. The committee also oversees military parks and battlefields, national cemeteries, and federal (and non-federal) outdoor recreation opportunities and administration. U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-Wis.) serves as the chair.

The subcommittee comprises Vice Chair John Curtis (R-Utah), Pete Stauber (R-Minn.), Doug Lamborn (R-Colo.), Cliff Bentz (R-Ore.), Tom McClintock (R-Calif), Jen Kiggans (R-Va.), Jim Moylan (R-Guam), and Russ Fulcher (R-Idaho).

After the legislative hearing, Chair Tiffany said:
"If I have learned one thing during my time chairing the Subcommittee on Federal Lands, it is that local input and coordination is absolutely necessary when governing the use of our public lands. I look forward to continuing to work with those on the ground to create practical uses of our public lands."
