Summary of HJRES 106: Disapproval of BLM's Central Yukon Resource Management Plan

Purpose and Intent

This joint resolution aims to disapprove and nullify the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) relating to the "Central Yukon Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan". The resolution would use the Congressional Review Act to prevent this BLM resource management plan from taking effect.

Key Provisions

  • Declares that the rule submitted by the BLM on the Central Yukon resource management plan shall have no force or effect.
  • Prohibits the BLM from issuing a substantially similar rule without explicit congressional authorization.
  • Requires the BLM to report to Congress on steps taken to finalize and implement the disapproved resource management plan.

Affected Stakeholders

  • The Bureau of Land Management, which would be blocked from implementing its approved plan for managing the Central Yukon region of Alaska.
  • Stakeholders and interest groups with a stake in the use and development of the Central Yukon lands, including Native Alaskan communities, environmental organizations, and resource extraction industries.

Procedural and Timeline Aspects

  • HJRES 106 was introduced in the House on July 14, 2025 as a joint resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act.
  • A companion resolution, HRES 672, was introduced in the House on the same day.
  • The resolution has now been sent to the Senate for consideration after passing the House.
  • If passed by both chambers and signed into law, the resolution would nullify the BLM's Central Yukon resource management plan immediately.

Overall, this resolution represents an effort by Congress to override and block a major BLM land use plan for the ecologically and economically important Central Yukon region of Alaska. Its passage would have significant impacts on the management and development of these public lands.
