To provide that the final rule of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service titled "Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Endangered Species Status With Critical Habitat for Guadalupe Fatmucket, Texas Fatmucket, Guadalupe Orb, Texas Pimpleback, Balcones Spike, and False Spike, and Threatened Species Status With Section 4(d) Rule and Critical Habitat for Texas Fawnsfoot" shall have no force or effect.

Referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.

Bill 119 hr 840 aims to nullify a final rule issued by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service regarding the endangered and threatened status of several species in Texas, including the Guadalupe Fatmucket, Texas Fatmucket, Guadalupe Orb, Texas Pimpleback, Balcones Spike, False Spike, and Texas Fawnsfoot. The bill seeks to declare that this rule, which includes critical habitat designations and protective measures for these species, will no longer be valid or enforceable. If passed, this legislation would effectively overturn the protections put in place for these endangered and threatened species by the Fish and Wildlife Service.
