LIZARD Act

HR 4558, the LIZARD Act, directs the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to immediately withdraw a proposed rule that would have listed the dunes sagebrush lizard as endangered. This bill stops the federal government from finalizing or implementing that specific rule or any substantially similar rule regarding the lizard's status. The legislation directly affects the regulatory process for the dunes sagebrush lizard under the Endangered Species Act. It does not change current protections for the species but halts a specific proposed regulatory action.
