What H.J.Res. 130 does
H.J.Res. 130 overturns the Bureau of Land Management's November 20, 2024 amendment to the 2015 resource management plan for the Buffalo Field Office in Wyoming, which made no federal coal available for future leasing. The Bureau must go back to the 2015 plan as it was before the amendment and make coal available for leasing.
The Bureau wrote the amendment after a court ruled, in Western Organization of Resource Councils v. Bureau of Land Management, that it had to evaluate the climate impacts of federal coal leasing in the Buffalo Field Office and consider alternatives to limit or stop leasing.
