Greater Yellowstone grizzly bears would lose federal endangered-species protection. The Interior Secretary would have 180 days to bring back a 2017 delisting rule, and courts could not review it.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
Grizzly Bear State Management Act of 2023 is a House bill in Congress.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people and agencies involved with grizzly bears around Yellowstone National Park. State wildlife agencies in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho would likely have more control over bear management. Federal wildlife officials would have less control through endangered-species rules for this population. People who live, ranch, recreate, hunt, or work near grizzly habitat could see changes depending on state decisions.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it changes who has the strongest say over Yellowstone-area grizzly bears. Today, federal endangered-species rules shape how this population is protected. After delisting, state plans would play a bigger role in daily management. The bill also removes court review for this specific action, so legal challenges to the restored rule would not be allowed.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
