Posts - Bill - HR 1194 Federal Lands and Waters Leasing Transparency Act

house 02/11/2025 - 119th Congress

We're working to enhance transparency and efficiency in federal oil and gas leasing by proposing legislation that mandates reports on rejected bids, establishes clear timelines for lease issuance, and addresses how legal challenges affect offshore lease sales. This aims to ensure fair market value, streamline processes, and maintain accountability in energy resource management.
