Senator Lee withdrew an amendment that would have restricted federal land management, allowing Collins’ language to stand.
Senator Mike Lee, R-Utah, withdrew an amendment to the Interior Department’s 2026 appropriations bill that would have restricted federal lands designated as national parks or protected areas to remain under National Park Service control by May 2, 2025.
The original provision, added by Senator Susan Collins, R-Maine, aimed to ensure consistent management.
Lee’s amendment drew concern from lawmakers and federal agencies, including the National Park Service, which warned it could block over 20 land exchanges and boundary changes and create confusion.
After two days of debate, Lee retracted the amendment, allowing Collins’ language to remain in the bill.
