Read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.
This bill directs the Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to reissue the November 3, 2020 final rule removing the gray wolf (Canis lupus) from the Endangered Species Act list.
The Director must reissue that rule within 60 days of enactment.
The bill also bars any judicial review of the rule reissuance.
Very narrow but highly contentious subject and removal of judicial review reduce coalition building; limited compensating compromise features.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a narrowly focused statutory directive that is specific about the action required, the implementing official, the exact rule to be reissued, and a short deadline, and it removes judicial review of that reissuance. The bill is weak on fiscal acknowledgement, contingency handling, oversight, and treatment of edge cases.

Likely opposed.
Views delisting as a rollback of federal protections that risks population setbacks and weakened enforcement.
Strongly concerned the statutory ban on judicial review removes legal safeguards and public accountability.
Mixed / cautious.
Will judge primarily on current science and whether states have credible, funded management plans.
Concerned about the 60-day timeline and absolute prohibition on judicial review, which reduces procedural checks.
Generally supportive.
Sees the bill as restoring state authority, reducing federal overreach, and removing burdensome ESA constraints.
Approves of the prohibition on judicial review as preventing further litigation delays.
