Latest action on S.J.Res. 80: Became Public Law No: 119-47.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people and groups tied to the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. That includes the federal land managers who oversee it, energy companies that may seek oil and gas projects there, nearby communities, and people focused on wildlife and conservation.
Why this matters: This matters because the reserve’s rules shape oil and gas work, land protection, and local impacts in a large part of Alaska. The bill removes the 2022 plan that guided those choices. It may open the door to a different plan, but the text does not say what that plan will be. Because Congress used the Congressional Review Act, the Bureau of Land Management may also face limits on issuing a very similar rule later.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
