What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Grizzly Bear State Management Act of 2025," directs the Secretary of the Interior to take specific action regarding grizzly bears. It requires the reissuance of a final rule intended to remove the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem population of grizzly bears from the Federal list of endangered and threatened wildlife. This action must occur within 180 days of the bill's enactment. The bill also specifies that the reissuance of this rule cannot be subject to judicial review.
