S.J.Res. 61 is a joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of a rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) relating to the "Miles City Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment." Specifically, the resolution aims to nullify the BLM's rule issued on November 20, 2024. The resolution cites a Government Accountability Office opinion, dated June 25, 2025, which concludes that the BLM's record of decision and resource management plan amendment qualifies as a rule under the Congressional Review Act. By disapproving the rule, Congress seeks to prevent it from taking effect.
