![["Paul Laxalt, a U.S. Senator from Nevada, is introducing legislation to improve Congressional oversight over Federal agencies managing public lands. The bill aims to use a legislative veto to control regulations inconsistent with Congressional intent. Laxalt believes this method is necessary to prevent regulatory overreach and protect public land users. The legislation requires a 90-day review period for regulations, with a concurrent resolution of disapproval needed to reject them. The bill is particularly important for Western states with high percentages of Federal land ownership."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Senate%20Committee%20Memos,%201973%20Nov.%20-%201978%20June.,%201973-1978%20-%20NEW/thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Senator Paul Laxalt's Letter on Proposed Legislation to Amend the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976")
