Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management relating to Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Leasing Program Record of Decision.
This resolution overturns the Bureau of Land Management's Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Leasing Program Record of Decision, issued December 9, 2024. Using the Congressional Review Act, it declares the record of decision has no force or effect, undoing BLM's chosen framework for oil and gas leasing on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge coastal plain. The resolution rests on a Government Accountability Office opinion, dated August 25, 2025 and printed in the Congressional Record, that treats the record of decision as a rule subject to the Act.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 7 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 8 quarterly reports filed by 7 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2025 Q3 and 2025 Q4. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
5 of them, in no ranking: Alaska Wilderness League Action; Defenders of Wildlife; Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions, Inc.; American Petroleum Institute; Nfib (National Federation of Independent Business). Listed as filed, in the order the filings were read, and 2 others are not shown. These are not the largest, the earliest or the most active: we keep five names per measure, and the filings give no ranking.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
