This bill nullifies several 2019 rules that revise regulations relating to the listing of endangered or threatened species and the designation of critical habitats.

The restored rules

  • automatically give threatened species the same protections as endangered species;
  • revise requirements governing when an agency must consult with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or the National Marine Fisheries Service about endangered species, threatened species, or their habitats;
  • prohibit economic assessments from being considered in listing decisions; and
  • revise the criteria used for designating critical habitats for the species.

Rulemakings related to these regulations must incorporate climate change impacts.
