Summary

This bill changes the Congressional Budget Act to designate any provision that sells, disposes of, or transfers federal lands as extraneous under the Byrd Rule. The Byrd Rule is a Senate procedure that prevents certain types of provisions from being included in budget reconciliation bills, which use expedited legislative procedures. By classifying land sales and transfers as extraneous, this bill would prevent such provisions from being included in these fast-track budget bills. The change adds a new category to what qualifies as extraneous under federal budget rules. This affects the procedural options available for legislation involving the sale or transfer of federal lands.
