Pacific Northwest Gray Wolves Relief Act of 2025

This bill tells the U.S. Department of the Interior to bring back a 2020 rule that took gray wolves off the federal endangered list. It would only apply to gray wolves in Oregon and Washington, and it must happen within 60 days after the law takes effect.

In plain terms, gray wolves in those two states would no longer have federal endangered-species protections. The states would handle management instead of the federal government.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Gray wolves in Oregon and Washington.
• What changes: Federal endangered protections are removed by reissuing the 2020 delisting rule.
• When: Within 60 days after the law is enacted.
