This bill would protect over 200,000 acres of federal land in Northern California by designating new wilderness areas and wild and scenic rivers. It would also create new recreation trails and a partnership to clean up illegal marijuana grow sites, benefiting outdoor enthusiasts, local communities, and the environment. These changes aim to improve forest health, reduce wildfire threats, and boost recreation.

This bill would make oil, gas, and mining operations get permits for their stormwater runoff, which they don't always need now. This could help protect local water sources from pollution. It also calls for a study on how oil and gas operations affect stormwater.

This bill would make states and large cities consider climate change and traffic when planning roads and public transportation. It would require them to set goals for reducing vehicle emissions and vehicle miles traveled, and for improving public transit access. If states don't meet these goals, they would need to spend a growing portion of their federal highway money on projects that help reduce emissions.

This bill would let small cannabis growers and product makers ship their goods through the mail or private carriers. This means people 21 and older in states where cannabis is legal could get products delivered directly to their homes. Currently, federal law generally bans mailing cannabis.

This bill would stop the use of M-44 devices, also known as "cyanide bombs," on all federal public lands. It would protect hikers, pets, and wildlife from these dangerous devices, which have accidentally harmed people and animals. Federal, state, and county agencies would need to remove existing devices quickly if the bill becomes law.

This bill would create new ways for Federally Recognized Indian Tribes to work with federal agencies on managing lands. It would require Department of the Interior agencies to develop co-management plans and allow the Forest Service to enter into agreements with Tribes for land activities. This aims to give Tribes more say in how lands historically important to them are cared for.
