This legislative proposal, known as the "Energy Opportunities for All Act" , seeks to invalidate a specific federal directive concerning public lands in New Mexico. Its primary objective is to nullify Public Land Order No. 7923, which currently restricts certain activities on these lands. Public Land Order No. 7923, published in the Federal Register, specifically withdrew public lands surrounding the Chaco Culture National Historical Park boundary in San Juan County, New Mexico, from mineral entry . By rendering this order without force or effect, the bill would effectively reverse the withdrawal, thereby allowing for new mineral exploration and development opportunities in the designated area.
Referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.
